Friends/Storm pictures



A lovely weekend with great friends!
Do you see the storm coming up behind us?  There's the finger in that cloud just behind Sean's head that was shooting out.  Jan, Gary and Toby stopped over with garden produce and Jan took this photo for us.   Thanks Jan!
In minutes, it looked like this.... so the 6 of us (and Toby) headed for safe shelter...inside the screen tent.  Toby was the only one with enough sense to want to go inside.
And then like this.  There was lots of thunder and lightening so we heeded Toby's warning and ran over to Jan and Gary's cabin.  (That way Charice and Sean could see it!) After some wind, lots more thunder/lightening and a 1 mn downpour it cleared out.  We all headed back to the tent  and enjoyed the following sunset back in the screen tent.  
We ended up having dinner in the tent dark after all the storm excitement.

It's a good thing we put the stakes in!
Yep, that was pretty close.
