not every morning's a sunrise
We had a pretty good storm rumble across the island last night. I came abruptly awake at precisely 1 a.m., when a enormous flash of lightening, immediately followed by a very large clap of thunder jolted me out of my slumber. I realized that all the curtains were flapping at a 90 degree angle and there was a torrent of rain pouring in the window.
I sprang up and ran from window to window, in each room, slamming them all shut. The storm took about a 1/2 hour to pass over, and then all was quiet again.
When I got up this a.m., there was another shower, but then it seemed to pass again. I could see the skies over the ocean from my porch, and things looked interesting, so I took a little stroll down to the beach.
With more storms threatening behind me to the west, I decided to leave Raven at home, in case I had to make a mad dash off of the beach to duck into one of the shops on the boardwalk
I walked down to the water and the sun made a valiant effort to put in an appearance, but never quite fought it's way through the clouds.
It made for a beautiful sky though! Well worth the stroll! 8-)
Now we seem to be stuck in this on and off shower pattern.
