Electrical Storm

My old grandmother was raised in the bush but never outgrew her fear of electrical storms. She would have  hid from last night's ripper, which was really three or four separate storms complete with light show and hail. Summer is in the house. This pic in between storms, trying not to be a lightning conductor.

"Lookin' out at the lightnin

Hear the thunder above the fields

Gettin' closer each moment

And I know how you feel

Well you better believe it

But I couldn't leave anyway

Watchin' this electrical storm"

excerpt from Electrical Storm by Ed Kuepper 1985
