Water
Rain on the open water
Out in the kayak when the shower came. I stayed out.

The forecast said dry until four. At two it started raining on the fjard. Small drops at first, then big ones that made every bit of the water jump.
I could have paddled in. I sat still instead and listened. Rain on water sounds like a crowd whispering.
Afterwards
Soaked through, cold hands, a boat half full of water. The best hour of the summer. I would not recommend it to anyone. I will do it again.
