Good Morning All,
Last night it was mighty lightning and thunder tear up the sky and pouring down rain. My poor dog was in distress, tongue out and eyes looking wild.
This morning, the sky is exactly what on my avatar there.
That is the picture of my backyard high up.
Clear blue sky, sunshine,.....I am at peace and thankful for this nice weather. It might not last, but I take it as I get it.

As Chief Executive Officer of Surf Lifesaving New South Wales, Stephen Pearce has seen a lot.
But for all that he has witnessed on the state's beaches, he has no comparison for the past three days.
"This has been absolutely horrific from a coastal drowning perspective. It would be the worst Easter drowning toll that we have seen in New South Wales on our records."
Six people have died - including children - the youngest, nine years old.
At South West Rocks on New South Wales mid-north coast on Sunday, a nine year-old boy died after police, surf life savers and fire crews attempted to free him.
He had been stuck in rocks off the shoreline.
The incident is being investigated for the state coroner. It was the latest in a string of horrors, in part attributed to a huge coastal swell that created hazardous surf conditions over the Easter weekend.Since Friday, rescue teams have searched from air and sea, looking for a 24 year-old man who was swept off the rocks at Little Bay in Sydney's east.
The same day, a couple and their friend were swept off rocks in San Remo, south east of Melbourne.
Acting Superintendent Paul Cripps of Victoria Police said the group, who are believed to be Chinese nationals on working visas, were caught unaware by the surf conditions.
"Seven people in their late thirties, early forties just walking along exploring the beach and it appears they got hit by a freak wave and three people got washed out to sea."
One woman died - and a search is ongoing for a missing man.
Two emergency lifesaving helicopters, based in Sydney and Moruya, have flown more than 30 rescue missions in the past three days.On one flight, crew discovered a man and teenager, floating face down in the waters to the south of Sydney, off the Royal National Park.Sadly, the man died - but Mr Pearce says with rapid resuscitation, helicopter crew saved his son's life.
Lifesavers have performed 100 water rescues over the long weekend- 50 of them on Easter Sunday. New South Wales Deputy Premier Prue Car says it's crucial that people follow the advice of lifesavers.
"It's really important to make sure that the people of New South Wales understand that while the weather is beautiful and yes, you want to get down to the beach with your kids during the break and the school holidays, please take the advice at all times of surf life saving. Make sure you stay away from dangerous swells you are putting your life in danger as well as those that we will have to send to save you."
Most of the drownings are attributed to people being swept off rock beds or cliffs - some of whom were fishing.

Australia has recorded its worst Easter drowning toll in recent history, with six people dead and two missing across New South Wales and Victoria. Lifesavers say the combination of hot weather, high coastal swells and increased beach activity has contributed to the tragic record.
