Today wasn’t extremely hot. The temperature was about average at 92 Fahrenheit, but the humidity was high. The daily thundershowers were small intense storms, but they were widely spaced. I heard thunder and saw lightening on the horizon in all directions. While I was out driving, I turned away from the storms a couple of times. My luck held and I never got caught in one.

This was a chores and rest kind of day. I got caught up on a few things around my RV home in the morning. During the afternoon I was back on the shoe search trail. It wasn’t very productive. This is when I kept turning whenever I saw black clouds ahead. Such a random path doesn’t support getting to your destination very well. As a result, I never made it inside a shoe store. Just a random Target.

The storms were gone by the six o’clock hour. I took the short form walk around the park. There were still enough clouds that I didn’t want to chance another storm. The Sandhill Cranes were back in the park this evening. This seems to be the same pair I’ve seen several times in the last month. Sandhill cranes are one of the bird species that mate for life.
