News Hunting on a Rainy Day

Seemed like it was going to be another wasted trip as I was on my way to the West. The instruction given was simple, "heavy rain in the west, go see if there is any flash floods etc". No exact location was given and I was ready to go rain-chasing. It pays to have the radio on in such circumstances. On hearing that traffic was affected on a street at Jurong, I headed straight for that. True enough, a tree had fallen right across the 2 lane road, probably up-rooted by the downpour. I shot a few frames before they started to bring in the chainsaws and dismembered the tree. I got to test the water-proofing of my shoes in 2 inch deep water. Job done, packed up and headed back to office. Listened to Dani California by Red Hot Chili Peppers on the way back. Felt like a victory song as I realized that this was the song I listened to when something gets accomplished for the day. Some songs just bring back certain feelings or is it the other way round...some songs come to mind when you feel a certain way. Never mind.
