When I woke up this morning, I couldn't tell what the weather was going to do. At first the sun was shining, then it got very dark, then the sun came out again. It actually turned into a pretty decent day; overcast with only occasional light sprinkles, and comfortably warm.
Obedience fun match this afternoon, and a good turnout, including six 4H dog handlers, two of them with ring experience. The others did quite well for their first time out. At some point during the dog show, a Great Blue Heron landed in the open field just a few hundred feet away, and wandered through the grass - hunting ground squirrels, which are plentiful there. Would have been a great photo op, but this was one of the rare occasions that I didn't have my camera with me, and kicking myself for it!
At around 6:30 a brief but intense thunderstorm rolled through - first serious one of the summer. The first crack of thunder was so strong it shook the house! I do love a good thunderstorm - if only we could have them without the lightning....
Light steady rain falling for the past hour or so, and all of the windows in the house are open. I do love the rain but I'm sure getting tired of it and wish for some sunny days to go out and shoot (photos). Although as of today I still have not had to water my lawn, so I guess I have to look at the glass as being half full.
