Hail and Dairy Queen

Dairy Queen was on our todo list for the day. Of course, we knew a storm was brewing. You could see it in the sky and smell it in the air. Still - we rushed to Dairy Queen - and while Jody was inside - Crystel and I made up stories about what was causing the thunder until Antonio told us we were chasing his good dreams away and the only thing that could restore them was icecream. We made it home just ahead of the hail. Sitting on the couch, looking out the bay window, the four of us watched it come down, and down and down. Ours was only pea size. It didn't damage our newly planted flowers.
