Last weekend, a fierce bolt of lightning
And a thunder clap announced the arrival of rain.
The lone jetty stretched out
Towards the infinity of purple rain,
And we enjoyed the sight of wild clouds
Rolling in over the lake before running home
Wet and exhilarated.

“And we enjoyed the sight of wild clouds
Rolling in over the lake before running home”… it sounds so good that I can say, too: “And we enjoyed the sight of wild clouds
Rolling in over the city before running home…” just knowing now what troubled weather we had sunday evening (they said it was a unique phenomenon that occurs when a cold front is mix with a “mediterannean” warm air or something like this)!!
Anyway… I love the amplitude of the purple lanscapes shown above… it’s the sensation of fairy stories when somehow or somehow in will appear the magic feeling of eternity… possible… ;)lol maybe it’s to much thinking of….

Stunning skies – and a pair of ducks, to boot! I see mention of the artist known or formerly known (so confusing) as Prince above…
He happens to come from my state, Minnesota. Though a few hours south in the cities & much different part of the state. I don’t know that I ever heard of Prince visiting our northern lakes & woods parts that your lake photos remind me so much of. 🙂
