parley view parsnip... opps !

 
I was to start my posts this week on what it is like to live in a border state.
But
Between the monsoons and how the barometric pressure change affects me 
I have been somewhat "under the weather" (hahahahaha  clever me whoo hoo)
Instead, today I will post about Sundays storm. 
........................
.
 Looking west from my side yard.
Storm flew over me lots of wind, lighting and thunder heading southwest into Tucson. 
Then curling northwest. We had almost no rain.
But the valley where Tucson is was pounded.

Alerts on my phone just kept coming.
.

 Lighting looking south from my front door.
.
 Lighting behind the clouds.
.
 Three strikes one right after the other. 
The weather news will show the lighting strikes over the Tucson valley
 and they covered the the map. 
Today is round two. .
Rain clouds building up all day till the storm breaks, late afternoon.
Then we get a break for a few days till the storms regroup
...............................

And here is your "pretty" to start the week.
Some what X-rated.
So beware !
Proceed  at your own risk !
Really think about it before you look !
I am warning you !
Last chance to 
STOP.
.
thehamish likes to nap on his back.  
Oh Dear ! I need my smelling salts.
Today as I looked down and saw him roll over exposing his tummy
 and other parts to the doggy window and the whole world.  
Oh My Goodness !
I warned you.
Naughty naughty thehamish.

Yert !

  5. Sometimes you just have to air things out a little bit. And when one is built so very square well, laying flat out on one's back looks to be so very....comfortable! :-)

    Those are amazing lightening shots. Whoo!

  6. We got a good five minute downpour at our house. I love your lightening shots and the Hamish looks so free and easy like he hasn't a care in the world. :)

    1. The weather is just what we are used to, so it is no big deal.
      Much like what lots of snow people know.

    2. I understand, since I live in a snowbelt and we're use to it. Though
      boy, did a lot of people ever bitch about the winter. Oy.

      Life's just too short for that.

  9. It must be both exciting, and I guess a little scary to live in an area whee such storms are so frequent. As for Thehamish, well, he's really quite slutty isn't he? Have a good week.
