Good morning, Arrowhead......what a video, and visual about NOT standing under trees in a storm.....

Looks like temps have cooled off a bit. Chilly here and sun has popped up over the mountains.

GB said she has some stuff to do. As for Beachy, God only knows where she is. Can't keep up with the gal. One minute here. The next, gone. Flits about like a butterfly.

I don't think I would ever stand there like that and be taking pictures of a storm next to a window. My parents taught me common sense about storms.

We are expecting 90 as a high today, but cooling off later this week. Mid 70 range by Thursday.
