Before Thunderstorm

Quite flattened? Beautiful place though...it really does remind me of Sutherland in the very North of Scotland!

How disheartening for you, but another atmospheric view.

I rather enjoy a good thunder-banger after a hot humid day...it cools the air and makes breathing easier...and the garden absolutely burgeons during those days. Sun all day and moisture at night is a wonderful combo...we used to have that weather pattern here but things have changed in the last few years. The hills look very like this area of Ontario... the ancient mountains, all weathered and grown over with hardwoods and pines...heaven.
