Summer in Colorado Ah, the joys of a Colorado summer! The thunder is pretty loud, but lightning's not close, anyway. The hail has almost stopped, and suddenly the sun is out—so somewhere there must be a gorgeous rainbow!
With the cessation of the worst of the storm, Sallie and Dolphin have gone back about their business: Sallie's trying to convince me that it's suppertime, and Dolphin's on his kitty condo working on his own meal.
A few minutes ago, however, they were both clustered quite close. Sallie was between my knees under the computer desk, and Dolphin was in my lap. Sallie was admittedly frightened, pushing her head under my hand desperately. Dolphin was quite clear that he had come over solely to comfort us poor, weak females.
Brrr! I suppose it ought to be cold, with hail so recent. But ... y'know, it's June! Shouldn't it be hot?
Ha! {grin}
