    How stunning!

    I follow a page on Facebook that updates on waterspout sightings, and they've shown many from the Great Lakes this summer! Weird weather indeed!

    WOW, that's an amazing photo!

    We had the hardest driving rain I have ever seen or heard late last night. It woke me up and I just watched it in wonder.

    Yes we have had strange weather.

    I do hope this humidity and HEAT blows away soon- we had such perfect weather though, I am not complaining. : - )
