Shades of Oz?

We finally got the rain everyone has literally been praying for in these parts. Early this morning we had some hellacious winds, thunder and lightening. I was having my morning tea in my office and looked out the window in time to see the neighbor’s storm door fly off it’s hinges and go hurling across the yard. I must admit that the scene from Wizard of Oz flashed through my head…the one where the screen door went flying when Dorthy tried to open it. While looking outside, I did however notice it suddenly got very quiet, and everything looked sort of green. Like a green haze was in the air. Even as a kid living why out in BFE country, we were taught when we see that green haze, to take cover. Fortunately,  things settled down and then it cooled off considerably. This is not to say that we are still having some major storms heading this way again later on. I’ve decided not to worry about it though. I figure the Big Guy is ticked off and disappointed with the whole world and he and Mother Nature, are in cahoots as far as the weather goes. My motto… Be prepared for anything now a days, where the weather is concerned.
