I love thunderstorms. When we were kids we'd sit in our garages and watch them roll in. Then after the worst of it, we'd take popsicle sticks and watch them roll down the side of the street in the big rivlets the rain created. It was fun.


Typically, my older dog freaks, but the younger one doesn't seem to notice. I shut down the computer altogether because I don't want any power surges. Also the tv, DVD player, etc. We do not run water or use wired phones. We're up kind of high and there have been lightening strikes around here. We also live in a rural area and lose power often, so I always have candles at the ready and at least one camping lantern or flashlight. It's almost like an event! We make snakcy foods and just wait it out, unless it's at night. Then we just lay there and listen to the rain pounding on our roof.
