The Thunder Wakes

Last night I woke up from a dead sleep at about 2:30 am. Not two seconds after my waking a huge clap of thunder hit the sky, followed by a flash of lightning. And right then, as I woke from sleep, I had this thought/dream that all the thunder had built up while I was asleep and couldn't release itself until I was awake. Silly---possibly. Not true---probably. But in that moment between fully-awake and fully-asleep, all things seem possible and true.

Falling Asleep Anywhere

My brother, sister, (faux) sister-in-law and nieces and nephew headed down to Vegas over Memorial Day weekend to visit my dad and his wife. I took practically no pictures while there--none swimming, or of my dad, or of my brother or sister--but I did capture these gems of the kids sleeping.
