We were on the water on Sunday, about 10 miles away from the home port.
I saw something forming in the sky and nixed going to a beach in the Gulf.
Passengers (including Mrs. 847) were not happy, saying I was being too careful. They said it was nothing.
I made a beeline for the home port, going almost 50 MPH (top speed) the whole time.
Minutes after tying up, lightning starts and the skies opened.
Passengers thanked me.
