As it is the middle of May, you would expect the weather to be quite sunny and lovely crappy here in Ohio - and you'd be correct in that assumption.
As the following photo shows, storms are currently hitting North East Ohio and aside from their strength, the views these storms are bringing are amazing!
Both these photos were taken at the same time - give or take 5 minutes and the camera settings were identical. I went out last night to take photos and as I was uploading them tonight, I looked out of the window and the entire street was a pinky-orange color! So I unplugged the camera again and went back out.
The rain came down hard so I couldn't stay out long, just long enough! :-)
If there is one thing Cleveland Ohio is good for it is basketball, football, baseball, clean lake water, high employment storms!
It's been a bit crazy here in the Knapp household what with injuries and work and photography etc., so I decided to take the night off and have some fun. A friend and I got tickets to see Rod Stewart ~ I know, I know, Rod Stewart.
Turns out that Bryan Adams was warming up for him so that made it doubly delicious! The concert was at the Blossom Arena which for those of you that don't know, is an outdoor pavillion. Half the arena is under cover, the other half is open air and on a hill. Well, the weather has been nice lately so we bought the outdoor tickets ~ considerably cheaper too!
Anyway, just as Bryan Adams was finishing his awesome set (totally buying his new album btw), the skies opened and we were hit with a torrential downpour that didn't stop until we headed home! It was lots of fun though and we danced and we sang and we fell in love with Rod all over again.... I HAVE to say though that even though he is knocking on in years, Rod gives good concert! Here is a snippet of the fun we had (the laughter comes as we are ironically standing in the cold rain):
Other than that, bugger all is going on ~ either that or I'm too busy to notice. We are getting a new roof today if that is of any interest to anyone!
Back at ya later......
Oh, here is one of my favorite pictures that I took recently!
