You posted earlier about your monsoon experience and I replied that I was looking forward to having one. Well, I did. I was outside on the porch watching the storm develop when the hail started coming at me sideways, the wind was so strong. As I was about to go inside to escape the hail, the building was hit by lightening. I must have jumped a foot into the air. I didn't realize it until the next morning at which time the hole in the building was visible as were the chunks of brick on the ground as far as forty yards away. And the broken windshield in a car below. Ouch.

This trip was much more eventful than one would ever expect from five days visiting relatives in their eighties...
