Day #298 After the Storm


Smith Bay
near Milford, ON
after a powerful electrical storm.

Always carry a rain jacket in your backpack, preferably with a hood.

If it's an electrical storm, look for shelter in some building.
If there isn't one, you can always crouch in the long grasses alongside the trail, and pray.
I've found that the more intense the storm, the shorter the duration, if that's any consulation. Many intense summer storms last about 20 minutes.
Things look so dark and bleak when the rain is pouring down.
However, as you see, after a storm the world looks bright and wonderful again.
May your world always be bright and wonderful.
Karen
