    A good storm

    There's a storm outside. First one of the summer, by my account, and it makes me glad. I just had to go outside, kilted of course. In an hour or so, my uncle is due to stop by. A session seems to be in order, if he brings his concertina like I requested. Storms always seem to be great times for getting together with friends and family over some drinks and good music. I just love it.

    I LOVE storms. We had one roll through here this afternoon. Had a twister touchdown just north of here, quite a bit of damage and at least one fatality, from what I hear. That's the part I don't like. A friend lost all his siding and a couple of windows. We just had some wind, rain and a little hail.

    Sounds like it should be a lovely evening! A good session is always wonderful... music, drinks, friends and family!

    I love cloudy, windy days (and prefer them!).... I enjoy a good storm. Of course, I hate damaging storms, but even a little bad stuff is still somewhat exciting. It's absolutely horrible of course when damage and injury or worse happens, but not all storms are horrible of course.

    I hope you have a great time!

    Heavy rain and hail here about noon today, sunny and in kayaks on the lake this evening. Such is life in the midwest.

    Where in Illinois are you? We had a great day here in Chicago. Only a few clouds in the late morning, early afternoon.
