Chasing Darkness

Hot and super humid with very high dew point. The air felt like it could be cut with a knife--not my kind of weather. Dark clouds began to appear in the north when I got up to Weidman and continued to move in to the south as I headed for home. I was wondering if I would be caught in a rainstorm, but made it back without getting wet. The clouds made it get dark sooner than it normally would. I had one gray pickup truck yell an angry something as he was westbound and I was eastbound on Pickard just before getting to Winn Road. Very startling and unwelcome. Seeing several deer on Littlefield on the way back was a special gift on this ride.
