thunderstorm


hells bells. we had a thunderstorm tonight. it was so cool. it came and went in less than ten minutes. have not seen it like this before. drops the size of golf balls. lightning crashing. thunder rumbling. and the water was gushing out the gutters like a firemans hose. i was just crazy. the street light outside my window exploaded just as i stuck my head out the window. spectacular. the water flooded the street in now time. a couple with a baby in a pram tried to cross the street. as they did the wheels of the pram disappeared under the sudden flood of water. the man half leg in the water. finally they made it into the car. soaking wet. i think the baby made it too. and believe it or not. the sky is now without a trace of a cloud. peaceful and quiet.
