Knock, knock, knock on wood.

Dogs do not, generally, like thunder storms. One particular beagle I know REALLY doesn't like thunder storms. And when those storms consist of a solid volley of lightning and thunder happening simultaneously for an extended period of time that particular beagle REALLY REALLY doesn't like thunder storms.

Lately we've been in the path of a number of massive storms. We've been lucky and suffered no damage around us but lots of others have lost electricity, experienced wind damage or, in the case of one friend, had a tree fall on his car. It really reminds you just how helpless we are when the elements decide to turn violent. Hopefully all of you are OK, yes?
