Mom was insistent on washing windows today so I helped her with all of the ones on the front porch. Dad did some resting and some supervising.
I made tacos and Mom cooked sweet corn and yummy beans from the farm. It was a good dinner.
Tonight after Scott and I bought our fishing licenses it started to rain lightly with some faraway thunder so we went ahead and had dinner. After a little bit of rain the lake was like glass so I decided to take my kayak out since I had only gone on a short excursion earlier today. It thundered a couple times so I headed to the camper to read instead. There I discovered I could get a little internet so I texted with Hannah a little bit catching up on the latest news. After that Scott showed back up and we laid in the camper reading and working on the computer. It started to pour. It sounds so cool locked up tight in the camper. It amazes me that it stays dry although we had to close all of the windows so it’s a little warm. Every time the rain let up we would open our lake windows a little bit. One time it started to rain hard again so we both sat up to zip up our windows and I saw something swimming in the lake - probably beaver size. Scott saw it too but there was a tree in the way so we didn’t get time to examine it. We both had just settled down again when there was a massive clap of thunder - thee loudest thunder clap I have ever heard!! Scott and I both nearly jumped straight up in the air!! We opened our windows a crack and tried to see something but we could barely even see the island it was raining so hard. We yelled into Grandpa and Nana to see if they were okay. They were but we could hardly hear them the rain is so loud on the roof. Of course we lost internet with that strike...
