Day 199 - storm chasers

 as we walked out this evening the wind picked up and we watched clouds roll in - could it be? could rain be on its way?  the kids and i decided it would be fun to be "storm chasers" and head out to the lake and watch the storm roll in..... oh wait - where is the storm?  we got to the lake and no storm, no wind, no nothing except way off in the distance.  i asked the kids if they would like to do a rain dance to help entertain mother nature and persuade her into bringing some rain.  oddly enough luke and lilly didn't see how that would work and looked at me like i had a third eye on my forehead.  seriously, you'd think after all these years they would know their mom was a bit off her rocker.  nevertheless it was beautiful out by the lake and i couldn't help and lament the fact that i work 4 days a week and can't go to the beach whenever i want.
