Dinghies

We canoed on the Connecticut River yesterday. The sky turned purple with bright white zigzagz of lightening at our heels. We just made it to the "take out" when it let go. My husband and I turned our canoe on its side and tipped it to make a shelter. We hunkered down staying remarkably dry as sheets of rain ripped across the river. Lightening struck BOOM all aorund. It lasted about ten minutes and then the sun peeked through. The world was soft and pink. And then a rainbow.
