An afternoon thunderstorm...
Thunder started rumbling an hour or so ago, a sure signal that the predicted storm was rolling in. I wandered out to the veranda with a book but ending up spending more time watching and listening than reading.
As I watched, the sky grew dark, lightening flashed and thunder boomed. A moderate wind arrived from southwest and trees began to bend and sway. Suddenly heavy showers arrived dumping water furiously. Then, as quickly as it had arrived, the rain moved out and everything was quite again.

Nice veranda! Yep, summer is here and so are the thunderstorms. I can't really say that I enjoy them, though. I see my grass growing and growing and me mowing and mowing ...
With a mosquito net, you guys could camp out on the deck :-)
