Strong like a bolt of lightning…


This post is dedicated to my wonderful Grandfather. He wasn’t expected to last the night and I have not heard what the night has brought to my family. I am dedicating an image of lightning to him because he worked most of his life for the electric company. Electricity was his thing. I remember fondly sitting in the garage with him watching the summer storms blow through and jumping slightly with every lightning bolt. “Wow, that was a big one!” he would say. Each one was a mini celebration of sorts. And if it got too bad we knew that they would call him in to come fix the damage and off he would go in some whirling storm. He was a good man to me and when he goes I will miss him greatly.  I cherish the fact that I still have his last name…

Hi Jenna,
What a wonderful tribute to Pop. I remember sitting with him in the garage on the fold up lawn chairs and watching the rain during the thunder storms. He would always comments about the bubbles left by the rain when it hit the macadam hard enough and say” when you see the bubbles, you know the rain will be over soon”.
He always said when it thundered that God was bowling.
