Welcome Thunder

I woke this morning to the rumble of thunder above my house.

Big deal? For many folks, probably not.

But in Minnesota - in MARCH, this is phenomenal...and in my mind, wonderful!

Spring is here!!!

I'm a huge fan of thunderstorms. I love their sound, their color. I love the wild scent of rain carried on the wind, clouds that are constantly changing shape, and the flash of lightning against an ink-dark canvas.

I'm busy with cool, secret projects today, but I'll be able to share soon!

  5. Ohhh secret projects? And with a thunderstorm for companionship? Doesn't get any better than that! I love it when you can see rain coming across the field towards you. I hope your thunderstorm is coming my way.

    Caroline - I'd love to spend more time in the desert. I've been to Arizona, but only briefly. The landscape fascinates me.

    Yvonne: You're in Chicago area, yes? I bet the storm is headed your way :)

  7. They do (or used to) have storm chaser vacations! You're teamed for a few days with the storm chasers and they travel the mid-westish area (Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, etc) looking for tornadoes.
