What a good morning after Mother Nature rattling the house all night. The thunder and lightning certainly made the top ten list. The winds were pretty strong also. So today will be spent inspecting the house and cleaning up the yard.
I took advantage of the early hour I was up and got out the door just before sunrise. This shot I captured on my way back after a short cruise.
Despite the overcrowding this county has grown into I still love the view I had the day I moved here almost 4 decades ago. This is just up the street from me.

It felt great to get out and shoot for a few minutes after a decent night’s rest. Today’s work will tax the body but I hope I have something left in the tank to do some more shooting later.
Random Thoughts of the Day
- I judge storms by how long it takes to clean up and how much it costs to repair.
- Weather is like life. Beautiful and ugly. Inspirational and deadly.
- Each day is like the beginning of a new race.
- I believe the sounds of the day will be leaf blowers and chainsaws.
