Thunder and Lightning and RAIN!

The view out of Auntie Violet's door this morning as it POURED! And there was THUNDER! And there was LIGHTNING!




I got really WET when I opened the door and leaned out to take the picture!

This is the sky an hour or so later --

As I commented on FaceBook earlier today, we have had more rain here in the "desert" the last month then we EVER have in eastern Washington in a WHOLE year!


We were going to out to do some exploring today, but it was just way too wet. We had rain showers off and on all day. We did go to the Post Office and picked up Forry's prescriptions, then to Fry's grocery and picked up some salad stuff and a barbecued chicken for dinner. And I did finish the laundry I had started yesterday.


We've been watching the Ice Dancing finals at the Olympics tonight. While not nearly as exciting as the hockey games we watched yesterday, they are nevertheless amazingly beautiful.


This is the gorgeous sunset we had tonight --
