Summer Thunderstorms

A phenomenon I rarely got to experience growing up in California. Though I have fond memories of running through downpours on our family vacations to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

Those memories came back to me this morning as I scurried to the subway through the ocean that was dumping down on Dean Street. Super fun when you're a kid in a bathing suit. Not so fun when you're an adult on your way to work.

Okay, I’m lying. It was fun. It was great – how often do you get to swim to work? But I had to ring out my skirt before entering my building. And my wet flipflops audibly squeaked through the office all day.
