Kim and Don arrived from Mountain Home, Idaho this afternoon and we had a great visit. The weather was perfect and we sat in the “backyard” under cloudless blue skies and heard wonderful stories of their winter travels. We learned a lot about the LTVA at Imperial Dam and the military base there. Funny how the Canadians know more about that area than we do. Thanks Kim and Don for sharing your adventures with us.
Then tonight, the sky really lit up. First with a gorgeous sunset which I failed to photograph and then with huge bolts of lightning. The thunder rolled and Poppy ran for the bathroom. At home she would be in the bathtub, but in the motor home she doesn’t know where to hide. I made the mistake of letting her go outside and she almost took off. She didn’t go far but she wanted to run and hide from the storm. Russ is now keeping her company as she hides in our tiny bathroom with the fan on and the door almost closed. Small spaces make her feel safer.
Here’s a couple of the lightning strikes we witnessed…hard things to capture but we got a couple of shots between us.
