In the rain

I stood under an umbrella watching a cold, wet, fall baseball game. I overheard the head coach say sincerely, “No place I’d rather be.”

It reminded me of a cartoon I once saw. Two men were fishing from a boat. Two other men were on a nearby golf course. All four were being pummeled by rain. The fishermen looking the golfers, the golfers looking at the fishermen … each pair thinking, “Idiots.”

We gladly do what we love, even when the circumstances are less than perfect.

Wishing you ideal conditions — and knowing you’ll be at it either way.
