BBQ Suddenly Gone Bad

Who invented the umbrella?
WHATEVER!

This started out as a great day! It is the annual balloon festival weekend. We'd been swimming, lounging, playing. We start to bbq, got the coals ready, got the food on, then suddenly the heavens opened. So as to not waste the burgers, dogs, and corn, I popped the umbrella open, moved it and stood outside another 20 minutes to finish the food. After dinner, some of the kids (including me) hopped in the pool which was warmer than the air outside, so it was like being in a spa. The pool was steaming, we could see our breath, it was hilarious. As soon as the lightning started, we hopped right out and ran for cover.
