Edge of the cell

Just a wee peek at the tiny bit of storm chasing my mother and I got sucked into last night... ;) We left dinner to see the clouds to the north looking quite fantastic. I sort of flippantly mentioned driving into the country, which is only about two miles north of where we were to find one's self in proper "country" -- it was totally worth it. We managed to find some high ground in an open area just before the rain started to fall. No photos can ever really capture that feeling and the smell and sound, or the distinctive lightning (it was interesting in this storm--mostly horizontal fat bolts)... but my minor league iPod did the best it could. ;)
