So remember a few weeks ago when I showed you what a storm looks like on the prairie? Well that was nothin!
Tonight while loading cars full of Relay T's because no one showed up to the meeting - could it be that they got the wrong date on the email that my friend sent? Um, possible...
Or maybe they knew THIS was coming (and we didn't)...
I took these pictures as I was driving home - with sirens, and lightening and bears (ok, not bears) oh my!
This was what I saw as I was pulling away from the building I was ignorantly hiding out in. This wasn't night approaching ladies and well, whoever actually comes here to read... This was clouds.
Like waves in the sky they were. it was a might bit freakish.
This is what had the nerve to head towards my little family at my little house on the prairie...
This was what I saw from the end of my driveway.So that my friends is what a storm looks like on the prairie.
In case you wonder if I am still here or not, well, this "storm" was more bite than bark. We are still comfortably located in SW Minnesota and not in Kansas.
Or Maine... where it has rained non-stop for 3,972 days straight. ME and Hallie, I will take a few of these over THAT!
Pally, I promise that you will be residing in the safest room in the house when you come! I also promise not to invite any of these little disturbances while you are here!
AS much as I hate the rain, that looks a lot scarier than our ran drops!

As long as those don't turn into tornados, I'll take a scary sky over 40 days of rain any day!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures!
What awesome pictures!!! It all looks mightily familiar....
ReplyDeleteI just love summer storms!!
Thanks for making yourself known to me... I have been wanting to meet fellow mckbrunchers forever, and one just showed up on my 'doorstep'!!
Have a blessed night!

HOLY MOLY~ I have never seen anything like that! Glad you are safe. Great photography!
ReplyDeleteCountry Mouse Pally,
ReplyDeleteAwww, it takes more than a little storm like that to scare me away...BWA! Remember...born in Austin, lived in Owatonna all the summers of my childhood. Tornadoes used to LURVE Owatonna. Every freakin' summer it would take the drive-in theater out. Which was only over a little hill (from which we used to watch the movies) and a few farms fields away from my Grandma's "mobile" home. Yes. It's true. We were trailer trash. And I gotta be honest. You can take the girl outta the trailer, but there is ALWAYS gonna be a little residual trash. Don't be hatin'. It's part of my fun-ness. :P
I'm glad you didn't get transported to another state. It would make our weekend a little more difficult, logistically. But still doable.
Hey! August 7, "Julie & Julia" with Amy Adams and Meryl Streep. Nora Ephron directs. I wanna see it with you! Plan accordingly. :)
Still love me even with the residual trash of the trailer?

That is rather freakish.
ReplyDeleteI live on the Canadian prairies and take pics of the sky too..my husband thinks it's strange but hey...I find it cool.
I am also terrified of tornados and freak my kids out whenever a storm hits...I make them sit in the basement with me..lol.
Nice seeing you at the MckBrunch today. Gorgeous photos!
