Thunderstorms

I had to run out and do some errands today and just made it back before the downpour started. I had to cut the trip short so I wouldn't get caught in it while on my motorcycle. The one thing that didn't get done was grocery shopping. I don' t have any food and it's raining hard as hell now. I guess I'll be ordering in tonight.

When I was younger we used to go to my grandmother's cabin in Door County, Wisconsin. Thunderstorms up there were great. Watching them rolling in over lake Michigan was spectacular. If you were lucky you would see large water spouts, little tornados of water. I have fond memories of sitting on the beach watching them come in, then dashing to the house before it started raining on you.

I just love thunderstorms and I hope this heavy rain turns into a big one. They make me feel really cozy. To bad Erica isn't here to enjoy it with me, she's off doing homework. blah.

i was just saying last night (after the previous nights lovely big crash and bang thunderstorm) how much the rain smelled like Door County, and how i miss the cottage.
