This is the view from my parents front porch in Gold Canyon, Arizona. They enjoy their home and I can see why.

Storm Clouds
Storm Clouds Last night the skies began to darken as clouds rolled in from the west. Before long a deep rumble could be heard and flashes of lightening lit up the skies. I stepped onto my balcony and was greeted with a very bright flash and clap of thunder as the skies opened and a severe storm raged through our area. Mans concrete and asphalt drainage systems were no match for incoming water so flooding was everywhere. What an awesome show of natures power. The last two evenings have produced storms. I took these images two nights ago as I drove east about 40 miles in pursuit of cloud formations.

Baby Bunny
Little Bunny When I arrived home last night around 10:00 p.m. it was raining cats and dogs, BIG cats and dogs. This morning has presented another gray sky with rain continuing to fall. Rain tapping on my window seems to help me sleep, so I had a good nights sleep. In contrast to the amount of rain I do not seem to have many words this morning. As for an image to post I grabbed this one. I encountered this little one last week at Inniswood Gardens.
Thanks for the comments to yesterday’s post. I loved Steve’s answer! Not sure about any of you but even half the $2000 would be wonderful. I hope everyone has a super day!!

Gray Skies
Gray Skies Yes, the skies in the Ohio Valley are definitely gray. I did a quick search on WikiAnswers to see what statistics were out on the web for the question, “How many days of sun in Ohio and how many in Colorado?” Here is the answer for Denver (300) and here is the answer for Cleveland (66). The numbers didn’t surprise me and are relative to the definition of sunny days. What has surprised me is the gray. It seems to me there are more flat dull gray skies here in Ohio while the gray skies on Colorado have texture and shades of gray. I’m use to seeing clouds moving and changing as nature creates art with its clouds. Not so true here in the Ohio Valley. They are just plain gray. Oh, and did I mention the wind blows out here in the Ohio Valley.
