I have been obsessed with weather since the day I proudly turned in the great Weather Project of 1987, no doubt sporting a rats-nest side pony tail and my snazzy blue Esprit outfit, proud of my awesome work nonetheless. For years I thought the coolest job in the universe was a storm chaser and I wanted to be one when I grew up, until I took meteorology in college and realized a WHOLE lot more is required than simply jumping behind the wheel of a tricked out storm chasing machine and outrunning twisters - like science, and equations, and measuring wind speeds. I still think it's the coolest job in the universe. For the record, I also wanted to be a psychiatrist, anthropologist, novelist, and journalist and pursed a few courses in those subjects as well. (hmmmm...I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up and I'm 29.) I digress.
I'm as giddy as that side ponytail, Esprit sporting 2nd grader during a summer storm and tonight I put my new camera to work as the beautiful thunderclouds rolled in. I even did some storm chasing!

May God give you...
For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.

AWESOME PICS. HOPE THE STORM WAS JUST THAT - AWESOME - AND NOT DESTRUCTIVE! Now, to address the side pony tail - slightly ratted. It was very cute on you and quite stylish at the time. And, the blue Espirit outfit was the bomb. Think I got it on sale at Macy's (I think) in Humble. You were rockin' Pine Forest Elementary when you wore that!
These are AMAZING! Especially the one of the rainbow and the lightning in the same shot. The last one is absolutely beautiful too - what time of day was that?
sweet pics! what kind of camera do you have?
Seriously, you got talent. Those pics are amazing. I tried and I tried to capture lightning last night, and nope. Just got black pictures. I bow down to your camera awesomeness.
And I can just SEE you in a side pony and rocking the Esprit outfit.
