Image taken today. Video just uploaded. =] Sorry about the noise, it was WINDY. Sustained, 28, gusting 40.

Notice the gas prices. =] Yes, $1.34. Too bad I don't have a car! LOL

Poem Artwork

The sky so massive, so full of
wind, it wants to blow me over
as it gathers overhead.  I stand

fast, camera in hand, rocking
with each gust:  a mere feather
compared to its power.  The

clouds roll:  I roll right along
with them, dodging each punch:
boxing never felt so good. 

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (12/27)

Either you just attract the "interesting weather" or it's that Texas thing again! Weather so Good here it's just BORING! Too warm, too sunny. We never get much rain in FL in winter until Feb or March. Imagine $1.34 gal. who would've thunk it would go down to almost pre-2004 levels!
I'd right-clicked on the u-tube vid. we'll see....Happy N.Y.'s eve

Your poem makes you sound at one with the wind. Those are some threatening looking clouds. We're still paying $1.79 for gas here in this little town. There isn't much competition, so they gouge as much as they can.

In Sweden we pay U$S 5.62 per-gallon, so, don't go ga-ga on me with a measly 1.34 ! ! ! and that storm you can keep, otherwise...I hope you get plenty fireworks around to chase that weather demons like the Chinese do.

Ha! You must be a better boxer than me! I love your weather pics; always full of drama. From the sign in your pic, your gas prices are about ten cents lower than ours. Ah, well, New Boston will always be the last to catch up :-)

I hope this didn't happen on Christmas. You can feel the storm coming through your poem. Guess you have a lot of experience with storms there. Love the picture.
