I’ll bring it up next time we see Tom. Next Tom we see? Flooding is one of his interests.
There may be another opportunity for a brother to drive later. We’ve been spray-painting a wooden stool Kathleen helped make in Cub Scouts, and we might run out of paint before it’s finished. That means a boy could drive to the hardware store for more paint.
The flash floods have always interested me. Thinking of the book, “Isaac’s Storm,” when he witnessed a river caused by flooding in the mountains and saw, amazingly, that fish were frozen solid. He didn’t know why, and reached into to water to find it ice cold. In Texas. (It’s a book on the hurricane of 1906 (?) that killed approximately 6000+ because of the storm surge. Excellent read! Comparable to “Tent Life in Siberia” but not as cold.)
Sending a brother after paint when he’s learning to drive is a good idea. Is James feeling better?
They just let people buy spray paint where you are? Around here it’s locked up and you have to fill out paperwork.
