What a deluge! In the hours before the first night of the regular season of Christmas Ships, on several occasions thinking 'Could it rain ANY harder?' and the answer was proven 'YES!!!' The weatherman on the 5 o'clock news told me that we had over 1.4 inches already for the day, and parts east were over 1.7 and he was waiting to see who would be the first to go over 2 inches.
It has been said that in an Oregon rain, it can rain all day and you don't get wet. Which on many days can be true! The fine mist that often falls here can run all day, and then the weatherman says something like 'Precipitation in Portland was 4 one-hundredths today'.
We must have warped to another universe lately.
But anyway, the Christmas Magic worked once more last night. Just before parade time, the rain ceased, or at the least became very light. We only had to run the wipers for a few swipes!
And for once, I got some tolerable shots of a few Christmas Ships.
