Quiet Saturday

We had cottage cheese pancakes with maple syrup for our Saturday brunch and then went for our morning walk. We went on a tour of a nearby resort and spent some time in their saltwater pool. Then we lounged around the pool reading before walking around to check things out. Later we hiked along a nature trail by Heron Lake.



This evening the dark clouds gathered, and we saw lightning and heard thunder. Soon the wind was blowing very hard, and we saw that NOAA had issued a weather alert for winds of 45-55 mph, continuous lightning, and heavy rain. Ken was checking the radar, and we were wondering whether to make a run for the clubhouse. Definitely scary, but it blew over quickly, and soon the sun was shining again.



The weather forecast pretty much shows this pattern for the next week: mostly sunny, highs in the 90s, a significant chance of showers and thundershowers.
