Hello all my darling friends...

We have been having some fantastic electric storms here in Alabama. A tree went down on Friday, and our electricity went out for a few hours... I love the sound of rain on the roof.

There have been storms all weekend, and I Totally Love It! It is such a sensation that I have to get out in it, for a bit - let the big fat raindrops plop down on me till I'm soaked... It is Wonderful!!! The only thing is that when you wear glasses and they get wet, you can't see a thing. Also, people seem to think that you are a bit crazy, and they believe you are going to get struck by lightning. I guess it could happen, but I think the chances of that are remote - so I say "enjoy it while you can".

Monterey almost never has electric storms, Sacramento had some pretty good ones, and my Mom told me once that Florida is the Thunder Storm Capital of the USA. I do remember some pretty good storms there.

I noticed that after a storm the country gets all steamy and a mist sort of lays on the land.

We still have the ferrets. Once the cage was clean the "odor factor" dropped way down. The actual smell of the ferrets themselves does not disturb me, in fact I rather like it. My hands smell sort of "sweet" after handling the little furballs.

Anyway, just touching bases with everyone. I miss all of you guys bunches.
