Afternoon Thunderstorm

I've been painfully missing this for 9 years...

(the beginning of the thunderstorm)

(and the storm begins to intensify...)

(the storm roaring, then settling...)

And while they rolled in, Will, the pups and myself snuggled in and were lulled into an afternoon nap by the sounds of the rain dripping off the leaves of the shrubs and the trees and pouring off the roof-top into the gutters and downspouts. And all the while, the thunder rumbled and rumbled... And it was truly AWESOME.
