Lazy Day at home then.....July 19th, 2010

We were spending a lazy day at home and a Thunderstorm rolled in early evening. All of a sudden everything went white followed by a crackling sound. 5 minutes later I get a text from Jeffery that he and his Fire Truck are headed for our neighborhood, to the cul-de-sac behind our house. So of course the kids and I went out to go look. There was no fire, but the house at the end of the street had been struck by lightening. It's carriage light was hanging off and it was blackened all around it. We got to see Jeff in his fire gear, but the boys didn't get to fight any fires..bummer!
