52 in 2013 - #21 Theme of the Week: Weather

Bell County, where we live, was under both a tornado watch and a thunder storm/hail watch this afternoon. Thankfully, we didn't see any tornados, but we did have some thunder, lightning, occasional hail, and heavy rain. At one point we looked out to see someone's garbage can floating down the street at a rather rapid clip.

In Roswell it's not uncommon to see some rather alien modes of transportation. I hope this guy succeeded in getting his pickup truck jump-started.

Yesterday I drove home from visiting my Mom in New Mexico. As I was nearing home, I stopped alongside the road to take this picture of the countryside dotted with a flock of goats. The sun was getting fairly low in the sky, so the colors had a somewhat golden hue.

Happy Mother's Day, Mom

Several years ago I put together this collage of photos in honor of my Mom. I don't think I ever posted it on my blog, and this seems like a good day to do that! By the way, the sailor on the stamp is actually my Dad.

I will be driving to Carlsbad on Monday to see Mom for a few days. I hope I can make up for being a day late for Mother's Day.

Love you, Mom! Can't wait to see you.
