Stormy night in San Antonio

We are in drought conditions in much of the State of Texas so I was glad to learn that we would finally be getting the much needed liquid gold.  However, we had doctors appointments in San Antonio and the weather forecast called for severe weather.  If it wasn't because I had already canceled prior appointments due to mother's fall and these are hard to come by went ahead and bit the bullet.

Monday night I had all of three hours of sleep and last night I was hoping to get some shut-eye but between heavy downpours, thunder, lightning and ambulance sirens (we stayed in the Medical Center area) not to mention my anxiety over possible hail pounding my car...which thankfully did not materialize...I barely slept.

We had an early morning appointment so as soon as there was a lull in the storms quickly loaded the car and took off.  We barely got to the doctor's office when once again storms broke out.  The good thing was that the severe weather that hit Uvalde, Hondo, and Castroville earlier this morning was a thing of the past when we headed back home.

I was happy to see that my primitive rain catchment system was full!!!

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
