It was a really spectacular shower. I remember way back, when I was
a high school senior(_really_ way back!), there was a shower
peaking. I have forgotten which shower, but it was really cold fall
and winter that year. I dressed and went out into the backyard, and
stood and watched until dawn. Started to walk back to the house and
my feet felt funny. I looked down and my shoes were covered with
frost! It was a great shower, though.
