A brief mid-afternoon respite from rain showers finds me on the banks of the Haw. Two days of downpours fill the river channel. The tawny waters strain banks and threaten breaches. The calm between storms is short-lived. Soon thunder echoes across the riparian ecosystem and ominous clouds move in. First rain drops splatter on autumn foliage in complementary rhythms to the rush of river waters. I retreat to shelter in my horseless carriage minutes before the skies unleash a deluge.
