T left early for Corn Buck this morning. The rain
met me just as I was about to make the fourth
and last river crossing. Taking cover in the dry
leaf mold below the old tree, I realised this was a
'whole day rain' and was just thinking of making
a dash for it when T arrived, in chivalrous fashion,
bearing a whole piece of old galvanise above his
head, in order to shelter and escort me across
the river and into the shed, where we drank hot,
sweet, strong coffee from the flask and shared our
riotously ambitious, rain inspired, dreams for the future .
What an absolutely wonderful story. I can practically hear the rain hitting the galvanise! Thank you for sharing that peek into your life. I think I'll pour myself some coffee now and dream a bit.
ReplyDeleteThis appeals to every romantic bone in my being!
