I was out west 4 wheeling with some friends in the desert.
Sunny. Hot. Not a cloud in the sky.
We set off on foot exploring.
In the blink of an eye
Thunder. Lightning.
The sky let loose on us.
And hail pummeled us mercilessly.
We sought refuge under a scrawny tree.
It was useless.
We crouched and shivered like pathetic cretins.
20 minutes later
Sunny. Hot. Clear skies.
Crazy.
A fantastic memory...
