"THE NIGHT I ¥AS SAVED”
BUD THOMPSON
Rain, rain, rain. Seemed it had
been raining for weeks. Being a 7th
grader, I was too busy with roller
skates, bicycles and fishing poles to
realize how long it really had rained.
bicycle had to have nexir spokes, new
bearings, a new paint job and a new
siren. All of this took me a week each
day after school. I took up roller
skating to fill the time while the rain
was falling outside.
I’d get Aunt Helen Wilson (as
every boy knew her) on the phone and
after I hinted that roller skates
were in good order she*d say, ’Ifell,
why in the sam hill don*t you come to
the barn and skate during this seige of
rain? But before you do, let me speak
to your mother •" So I ’ d put on the
phone and she*d say, 'T/Jhy, Helen, Buddy
said he got all his lessons during
study period,”
So while they were decidin*, I*d
put my raincoat on and iny roller skates
over my shoulder and take off toi-jard
the barn just a-x^histlin*. I*d get on
the front porch at Aunt Helen’s and I’d
hear her say on the phone, *Tf\Tell, you
let him come on. This inside skating
will keep him off the creek banks. I
know how he and Barak love to fish, no
matter what the weather."
Anyiiray, I got home that night
about seven and I'kma had saved me some
black-eyed peas and pork chops. I
didn’t even take time to dry, I was so
hungry. % knee was sore, but I man
aged to get to the table without anybody
noticing me limping. (CON’T ON P, 18)
