Wow.  I had no plans of writing a post this evening.

I felt fortunate to survive my drive home from Paoli today.  It rained cats, dogs, the kitchen sink, most of Patoka Lake seemed to be displaced over the top of my car on the way home.  Add a little lightning and a great ddeal of wind and you have to tell Aunt Barbara in Mississippi you have to hang the phone up and hope to make it home and hope to somehow call her later.

From Paoli to the English golf course the temperature dropped 18 degrees.   That would be about 17 miles to the south.

I lived to tell the story and actually called Aunt Barbara back to let her know I survived.  I was never in doubt, though peril found a way into my consciousness.

So I went for a walk this evening.  By the time this posts it will probably say April 8 even though it is not quite there yet.  I think I am headquartered in the old country.  Honestly, I don’t care.  I just write.

During my walk I was motivated to write and share a few pictures.

You know Thunder Over Louisville Air Show Practice is going on when you see three planes from the southeast, two from Charlotte and one from Atlanta, flying overhead south to north 40 miles from Standiford Field in Louisville where they were to land.  I pay attention to planes and often look at a Flight Tracker app on my phone.  That is how I figured out where they were from and where they were going in such an odd direction.

First snail spotting of the year.

The colors are coming together on the old walking trail.

I was pleased with the light and could not turn this shot down.

If you look close to this picture you may be able to find a rainbow.  I saw two of them on my hour long walk.

This one you can probably make out a little better.

I had to take one more from a little farther up the hill.

I enjoy how the trees provide a tunnel effect here.

I’ll save the best for last.  Jarrett and I went fishing yesterday in Blue River.  We caught google eye and small mouth.  It was a wonderful time I usually only dream about. He won’t be home long.  But we have had a good time.

Speaking the rights.
