As in Murphy’s Law….
Kathy & I returned Sunday from a few days in Bardstown, Kentucky. We met our friends Jim & Lisa there, and spent a few days exploring distilleries and horse country.
This morning we needed to go to the grocery store. As we are in the beginning stages of what looks to be a week long monsoon, we went prepared. Raincoats and umbrellas, leaving the sunglasses at home. As it turned out, no rain, and the sun was peeking through the clouds as we left the store. Perfect!
When we returned home I decided to leave the car in the driveway, hoping for a “free car wash” to dispel the layer of dust we had accumulated over the week. Several hours later, no rain. Finally we got a nice heavy shower, just enough to wash off the loose crud. Good for a few more days!
That’s how I normally wash my car.
I actually enjoy the process of hand washing my car, as I find it relaxing and contemplative. But I only take the time when I’m pretty sure it is going to stay clean for a while. On occasion it is good to just give it a “rinse.”
I’m sure the bourbon benefits from such interesting light.
Light doesn’t have much effect on the barrels, but it does tend to make the drinker more mellow, I’d say. 😉
