Daybreak Daily

WOW weather!

 
Did you get much sleep last night?
 
Probably not -- and, I'm right there with you.
 
Those monsoon storms were something else!
 
I crawled into bed around 8:00 last night, and I could hear the thunder in the distance.
 
By 9:00, it sounded like the eye of the storm was hovering over my house.
 
I'm talking continuous loud claps of thunder -- for HOURS!
 
Plus, the continuous flashes of lightening were so bright, I could see them with my eyes closed!
 
I eventually drifted off with a pillow over my face -- desperate for sleep.
 
Funny thing -- I didn't even hear the wind or rain..which my neighborhood got a lot of.
 
Pulling out of my driveway in the wee hours of the morning, I saw that all of the recycle bins on my street had been tipped over.
 
In front of my house, several empty beer bottles.
 
At first, I thought -- who got drunk and played a stupid prank with the trash bins????
 
Then, as I continued to drive down the street, I saw all of the uprooted trees.
 
Ah, yes. Mother nature -- not, drunks.
 
By the way, as you drove around town today, did you notice that while huge trees had toppled -- most campaign signs remained firmly planted in the earth?
 
Just one of those things that make you go, "Hmmmmm."
