We still live in NC, and I used to watch the 'T' storms all the time from my shop area (a lean-to on back of the old 4 section pigeon loft building)
I got hit by a ground strike while I was holding on to an umbrella (YES I know just how dumb that was) looking out the south opening. My DW found me on the dirt floor, and I didn't have any idea what happened or why I was on my back in the dirt and hurt all over. I don't enjoy 'T' storms anymore.

I've never actually been hit, but I have been a little too close to a few too many lightning strikes to really enjoy a thunderstorm.

Unfortunately, at this time of year, the rain does mess around - just enough to make mud and stay that way.

I never use an umbrella, I am certain I would get hit by lightning. I just rather be soaked than take the chance.

yea, Friday!

Good morning fellow chicken keepers.
Raining here.
Each evening my husband get out the extension ladder to paint the gable eaves, and each evening it would rain a little and mess it up.
Last night it rained a lot all night.

Oh well.

I spent the night thinking how to make chickens from gum drops for The gingerbread coop contest.
I need to go get orange slices.


Scott, I used to do the lightning watching as well. Then it hit ten feet way and now I hide.
I am glad you survived to tell about it.
many times, fishing, running accros the bay trying to beat a storm back to the dock, you could literally feel the electricity in the air.

fishing line would start floating up, in the air, and so would your hair.
