Future Stormchaser? Maybe.

It all started early in the morning while I was having "coffee" with my adopted grandparents. It got dark and started pouring outside. You can see the water was running down the window pretty good in this picture.




Okay, now we were in a tornado warning during the time I took these pictures. And, before you start lecturing me with how crazy/stupid that was, let me just say that I absolutely LOVE chasing storms and watching weather develop. But, hey, I'm still here.

In the background of this picture you can start to see a wall of rain coming. About this time my cousin Jeremy showed up and we waited in the driveway and listened to it approach. It sounded like wind, but there wasn't a leaf blowing. It was the raindrops hitting the leaves of the corn. It was cool! The closer it got, the louder it got. Then all of a sudden the temperature dropped and the wind picked up a bit--we ran for our vehicles. For a few minutes I couldn't even see the trees around me. It was a downpour...and I loved it!!!
