Hail and 60mph gusts. I was SURE the hollyhocks and bee balm were gonna be flattened but they were hardly touched. A few flowers got knocked down here and there which gave me an excuse to cut them and bring them inside. Scary storm though. I hid here in the office hoping that if the big tree came down it'd miss me. Mister was driving home in it and got to see a lightning strike. We were both a tad shaken when it was over. Funny thing is that I didn't give my car- parked right under the big tree- a second thought. It's all about the flowers, kids.
