The second big thunderstorm of the summer struck last night — though not as intense as the last, and without the tornado warning — and I realized (again) just how much I enjoy the crazy weather here.
It’s incredibly invigorating to hear the booming thunder claps, the lightning bolts flash right outside my window, the streets and grass flood with water and drain just as quickly as they filled. The dogs are terrified of the thunder and curl up under my feet with each big storm. Jen and I rushed to the porch to soak up the excitement and take some photos. I even recorded a couple videos with the digital camera to capture some boom boom (of course, neither video or audio could do a storm justice).
I’m glad I don’t live in the desert. I like what causes the natural greenery. And good thing I watered the lawn yesterday not long before the storm hit. That’s the second time I’ve planned so well.
A dirty joke: Girls’ Night Out.
