Quite a few of the Denver Brokies were still in Wyoming at that time, probably driving through Saratoga and on into Colorado near Granby. We took the Trail Ridge Road, the highest paved road in America, if not the world, over the Continental Divide near Long's Peak and Estes Park. The weather was overcast but not too bad. Spectacular photos, friend Eric!! My family went around and unplugged nearly everything, so there was no damage at home.

We don't get much of it 'round here.  :-\

Although yesterday I was on the train home from Oakland to San Jose and there was a thunder cloud over Palo Alto with some flashes of lightning, all at Sunset.  It was beautiful.  We don't get that much 'round here.
