Thunderstorms

Yes!  It stormed this morning!

I LOVE Thunderstorms--no, not the destructive kind that come with wind and tornadoes, rather the soft rumbly kind that bring rain.

I don't really have anything against a good light show--personally, I don't think there is a fireworks display on Earth that can come close to Mother Nature's fireworks--especially on a summer night.

There is nothing like sitting in your favorite chair on the porch, or snuggling warm and dry in bed and listening to the rumble and the sound of rain on the roof.  It's one of life's simple pleasures and one to be treasured and looked forward to all through the long, cold, depressing winter months.

Robins are EVERYWHERE now, and the grass is changing it's clothes from winter brown to spring green.  I'm sure that SOMEWHERE Crocuses and Daffodils and maybe even some brave Tulips have started to push their way towards the sun...in the woods, maybe even some Jack-In-The-Pulpits.  Can the Morels be far behind?

  1. Jaq and Travis had some Crocuses in their yard. We've seen a lot of them! Actually we've seen a lot of those flowers!
