Fire Hydrant Curiosity

Today, a city worker opened up the fire hydrant outside my classroom window. He watched it spray into the street for approximately 30 minutes. My students were distracted. I was distracted. (It should have been a writing prompt. I still don't know why the hydrant was opened. It reminded me of Seattle a bit, other than children weren't playing in the fountain, and I was still working--not traveling.


Soon, passers by couldn't help but turn on the dampened street. Okay, the street was more than damp. Maybe, to a driver, the spray was too much to resist. I wonder what I would have done in the Jeep?
