Rain and fallen trees

Sunday, July 13
While I was in the National Museum Of Art this afternoon
(Yes, I have already been there but I went back to take more pictures of elephants and a few tigers.)
Elephants carrying relics of Buddha, Sunga, 2nd Century A.D.
Bronze Elephant, Harappan, Civilization, 2000 B.C.
   IT POURED!

   My taxi driver, who had waited in the parking area was hit by a falling tree limb.

Fallen tree in Mueum parking area.
His taxi was not crunched.
He had minor scratches.

Making our way through flooded streets
we returned to the hotel.

During the rain,
The power lines across the street from the hotel had exploided and caught on fire.
There is no power on the other side of the street tonight.






Boy does this feel just like Old Cloverdale and Montgomery-
Sudden torrential rains
Huge fallen trees
Flooded streets
Blown transformers
Loss of power
