Thunder Cloud Dispersal

We had some rain today, a very good thing. It wasn’t a lot, but at least everything is damp.

We were on the edge of a large thunderstorm; the wind suddenly came up, we could hear the big boomers, and of course, the skies darkened dramatically.

I’m wishing for good soaking rains for Alberta and the other areas of the country that have been severely affected by forest fires.

Happy Tuesday.
