Cloudy Skies

Yesterday the sun was shining and we had a lovely sky.  Yahoo I thought, I'm going to sit out and soak that up. 

First we had to brush down the chairs to get rid of the spider webs along with the spiders (and there were a lot of them).  

I'm pleased to say that Danny did that for me - my hero :))

Well I had just got settled in my chair and had rolled my trousers up - just so the sun could get a glimpse of my lily white legs!!! And no I'm not showing you a picture of that you will be pleased to hear ;-)

I put my head back and sighed in content and looked to my left and this is what I saw. 

 Nooooo!!!

 Anyway, we put the chairs away and went inside but the sky continued to get darker as the clouds rolled in.

 But don't you think it looks kind of beautiful - a bit like marble!!!

The rain did eventually turn up along with some thunder - no lighting just big rolling thunder.  

We stood at the back door and watched the rain get heavier and heavier.  

You know that smell you sometimes get when it rains the lovely fresh smell. Between the lovely dramatic sky, the coolness of the rain and that lovely smell, I actually quite enjoyed the rain.

It did eventually stop raining and then the sky brightened again in the evening. 

I hope you don't mind my sharing our weather with you today.
