I just got in. It was a beautiful ride. I am NOTHING but exhausted and other than unloading my car, I haven't started to unpack. But nobody is home here and you guys are always next on my list to check in with.

So you just reminded me of the beauty of my day - well, not you personally, lol - but your mention of a thunderstorm. I left my sister's in the dark and just as I was leaving you could see the lightning and hear the thunder in the distance. It was so cool because it was pitch dark - you couldn't tell the difference between where the treetops ended and the sky began but when that lightning would flash - wow! - you could see the silhouettes of the mountains and the trees. Gorgeous! Then as I reached the top of the highest mountain that I have to go up to get to the interstate I could see the sun beginning to rise in another direction. Once I got to the interstate their was a lot of fog but the fog formations in the low lying areas and again the trees mixed in were just beautiful. Last but not least the beauty of Lancaster county and all that entails (buggies and farms, like going back in time) rounded out my trip. What a day! A lot more than NOTHING for sure.......
