As the sun sets and the storm approaches, the lake goes calm.
It was a great afternoon of sailing and we made it off the lake before the storm hit.

Great shot - definitely photo comp material.

Mark; That’s a great sunset. Any word on when the tandem will get there? Hope it’s soon.

Larry,

Nothing. The dealer I think has all the trailer parts now. They were suppose to check on status and get back with me.

Here is a funny video (funny cause I opened my mouth and started to talk!).

With the storm to the north, the wind really picked up.

Almost home the storm hits, a short video of while I driving through it with commentary.
*OOps, there is like one curse word, hope nobody takes offense.

It was great afternoon and evening. We had everything from calm to very windy to sun and clouds. It was awesome. And driving home was the wild storm. What a day!

Both would make great background on a computer. Photo one seems clearer and has richer color than the second.
Really enjoyed your driving in the storm footage. Brought back memories of Kansas and Florida.

Yep, photo 1 get my vote too. Nice and sharp with good color.

Thanks for the comments Fly4v and Cowsgomoo.

The weather video cracks my wife up. I think she has it memorized and I get to hear her repeat it to me everyday since the storm. LOL.

It was a wild storm for sure.

I think I will put pic 1 into the AI Photo Challenge.
