No picture today, I'm still drying off after the wettest drenching I've ever had (short of going swimming or taking a shower). Just came home from shopping through the scaryest thunder storm. Rain driving sideways in great washes, lightning streaking the sky. Was I scared - you bet! I had to get out of the car to open the gate to drive into our carport and before I reached the gate I was drenched through to the skin. Gasping as each gust of rain hit me. The man of the house had gallantly offered to do the job but as he was driving and would have had to get back into the car wringing wet, so I got all brave and did it. I had to peel my clothes off and wring them out afterwards.
My goodness, what an experience. Anyway, all dry now. Bye for now, until next time.
Oh I know what you mean! I too was driving in it. My daughter said it was like a water ride at Disneyland! I was terrified, but laughed along, relieved to get other daughter from school and arrive home, safe, but drenched!
ReplyDeleteGot to love the rain even if it is torrential. My garden is guzzling it! Thanks for the little comment on my creative space yesterday. Definitely check out those tutorials. The best part is they are so fast- you have a beautiful completed project within an hour- TOPS! Have a nice weekend! xo Meagan.
ReplyDeleteHello Laurel - I saw a Lollypop Lady standing at her post, no shelter anywhere. Her hat and coat would have been no help at all. Poor her.
ReplyDeleteHi Meagan - I don't have to water anything either and my tanks are overflowing - luvly.
At that exact same time, a few kilometers away, you would have found me with my 3 dogs huddled on the floor next to my bed....hiding
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you Melanie. It was pretty scary.
ReplyDeleteIt was an incredibly scary storm. We even got the kids away from the windows as we were worried the hail was going to smash them. You were very brave to open the gate!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I was thinking properly Nikki, just wanted to get somewhere safe and probably the safest place was the car. Hope I don't have to do anything like that again in a hurry.
ReplyDeletewow that must have been scarey, glad we never got that one, glad you got a free wash from the almighty above though he he
ReplyDeleteYep I was really scared Dons.
