Passing Storm


My classroom looked darker than usual when I turned the lights off. I looked out the window and saw a giant black cloud over our heads. That was unexpected because I hadn't seen rain in the forecast. Well, either I hadn't, or I didn't pay attention. Either way, as I walked out of the building, the beautiful smell of wet dirt hit me and I wanted to float away. I must have looked ridiculous breathing deeply as I passed the  plaza but it just smelled so delicious, I wanted to become one with the smell.

 I took several shots as I drove (no cell phones, but no one said anything about no cameras! ... I'm kidding) and after saying hi to my hubs, we went out and I noticed the clouds had moved. So I grabbed my camera while he was driving and as we made our left turn, I grabbed this shot. I love how you can see a little bit of sky blue on the right side of the screen versus the ominous dark cloud on the left.

The storm passed. Don't worry, it's still mid-April. They will return once more.
