the chain in the rain

Yup, it's a chain...in the parking lot...in the rain...just outside of the Christmas tree tent at Home Depot. I'm telling you, these metal objects just throw themselves out in front of me! It's like I'm a 'metal magnet' (yes, the pun was intended). But, there we were on the very first day of Hanukkah, picking out our Christmas tree (or Hanukkah bush) in the gloomy drizzle, and while it was being tied onto the roof of the jeep, something sparkly caught my eye on the ground...and the rest we say... is history Virginia... :}
