It's A Wonderful Day in The Neighberhood in Louisiana

I woke this morning to what sounded like someone throwing rocks at our house.
Got up and saw that we were having a big hailstorm with a side of thunder and lightning.
Oh Goody.

Hailstorms are something I've had little experience with.  In PA I think we got two of them in the 36 years we lived there.  But of course how could I forget that Epic Near Death Experience in 2017 up on the High Prairie in Idaho.

When the weather finally calmed down a bit Hubs went out on the back porch and snapped a picture of this big Mama Jama with his Croc next to it for scale........

I am surprised that we didn't get a tornado warning amidst all this crazy weather....but then again, it isn't tornado season yet.  That comes after the Rainy Season and before the Dry Season here.  

I texted my Daughter and she said the hail knocked out their internet.  Not surprising since they have a tall pole on the roof of their house so as to pick up an internet signal/connection so I am sure the Son in-law will be climbing up there to repair that today. 8-(

With all this new rain(and melted hailstones)Evelyn Egret will no doubt be back on Monday for another fishing expedition in "the river".
