Hello and welcome to part 14 of our journey through North Carolina.
As we traveled along the Blue Ridge Parkway we had opportunity to pull over and watch a huge storm passing in the distance. It was so beautiful sitting there seeing how dramatic nature can be.
(To view the video, click in the image above.)
Well this is it for today. We hope you come back and see how the trip unfolds as we share more of USA Through Our Eyes. Until then be safe.
Thank you Cheryl.

Very dramatic. I dreamed about a wonderful rainstorm last night. Sadly, we are still bone-dry here. 🙂 In fact, they’re predicting Seattle is going toward more dry in the summer and more wet (even) in the winters. Hmmm.

It was our first experience seeing what time lapse is about. It was fun watching the storm come at us and then hit. We like 80’s but the 30 not so much, lol.

We have been enjoying your post for quite some time now and like how you bring out wonderful stories of people in your area. It is so nice to be able to share journeys with you.

LOL. It was fun creating this first time experience with time lapse. We took about 30 stills thinking that was enough but as you can see distilled its only 25 seconds. We are loving the learning experience.

Its okay to take the well deserved breaks from blogging everyday. When we first started we were doing 2 – 4 post a day and it catches up with you and burns out the followers who are reading hundreds of comments and post of their followers. We had to keep reminding ourselves this is about having fun. Its not a sprint, its a marathon. Having run a few of them I learned its about pacing oneself. You’ll get the hang of it. All your readers aren’t going anywhere especially us, lol.

Sorry that I haven’t blogged in a while, I started to get stressed but I’m very behind and couldn’t catch up. I’m so glad that you are with us on our journey 😊👍🏻

We thought you had disappeared and are glad to know you are okay. Its good to take breaks from the blog and see the surrounding you are in. There will be plenty of time to blog after the experiences. Sometimes when we’re on the road we’ll go several days before we get a chance to catch up. The main thing is you are staying safe and having fun. Make every moment count and try to bring a smile to at least one person a day, lol.
