Summer Storms






We had a lovely storm last night. It rolled in just as the sun was setting, giving a magnificent lightening display. I stood on the verandah and watched it coming in. The thunder and lightening were almost constant throughout it. I just love watching storms; storms that aren't dangerous that is. I relish every moment of them. We've been losing power a far bit lately to thunder storms, but we didn't last night. I had the candles lit just in case.

I didn't think we had gotten much rain out of it though, until I rose this morning and saw the small dam full, and the rain gauge informed me that we had in fact received 33mls.
We had a little rain a week ago too, so I am hoping the wet season has finally started at last. Wouldn't that be lovely?


How's your Sunday rolling where you are?
Hot, cold, wet, or dry I do hope you are having a nice one!

  3. It was a nice 22 degrees for us today. We spent it up at our families place in the country. It was for some birthday celebrations, 2 kiddies turning 2 and 4! We had a lovely lunch, the kids enjoyed playing together and we came home with bags of yummy plums from their fruit trees. It was a wonderful day xx
