Lightning Struck Tower

Lightning Struck Tower

In a traditional tarot deck, number 16 of the major arcana is the Lightning Struck Tower. Monday’s flight out of Las Vegas and subsequent connection to Phoenix and points beyond were a major “Charlie Foxtrot” situation because, apparently, the control tower at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor had been struck by lightning the during a thunderstorm the previous night. The symbolism wasn’t lost on me, I just forgot about it all until a few days later.

How often does life resemble a tarot card?

Saturday morning, I’ll be up before the dawn, heading out to the lake and try my hand at fishing. I just hope Lady Luck is still with me. Never can tell, August isn’t here yet.
