After the game I relaxed by the pool and worked on my tan while reading the newspaper. There was an article in the paper about more snow headed toward Boston.
Those poor bastards in Boston. Why don't they get the hell out of that place?
Hey Gus, I'm from the Boston area. You should have been here for the storm we had the other night, WOW! We experienced lightning and thunder during a blizzard-like snow storm (rare).
I lost electricity at my house during the wee hours of the morning, around 2 am, but I didn't mind a bit, in fact, for some strange reason I liked it.
So I'm laying on a couch, next to a window, reading by candle light, around 3am, I just happened to look out the window the second a lightning flash occured, (I have never witnessed a flash of light like this, in my life! and I'm a storm watcher) it wasn't a bolt of lightning, it was a DOT of lightning.
At the angle I was laying, the DOT appeared at a 2:00 o'clock. Less than a second after the flash something in my kitchen got zapped
I don't know what appliance it was, I just heard it from 2 rooms away.
Did I mention the gusts of wind? It was gusty, Gus.
So you were able to golf, work on your tan, and sit by a pool, hmm, are you trying to make Bostonians jealous? Mission accomplished
Don't forget the sunscreen, apply where prohibited!
