We were supposed to be off of our scripts by rehearsal tonight. And, we were... But, that didn't mean that we all knew our lines, yet. Rehearsal went much longer tonight than usual.

I was in the right place at the right time this afternoon. I stopped to watch an ice floe go over the damn and then pretty soon I saw this boat coming down the river with the ice. Someone lost a good looking boat.
