Amanda and I are headed to Charleston, South Carolina for one of my best friend’s wedding this weekend, and on our way to Dallas (driving to Dallas to fly out makes more sense sometimes than from Lubbock, I know…), we ran through a building thunderstorm. The images aren’t anything to write home about, but living in West Texas will give you one thing over all other areas in the state and much of the nation: open skies!

Good friend and sky aficionado, Wyman Meinzer was behind us by probably an hour or so, and he caught some nice colors on the way out of the storm. Unfortunately, we were heading east with a metaphorical train to catch. Still, you just can’t pass up the view of a wide open, Texas-sized wall of water pouring down from the heavens!

Flying out this morning! I hope to come back from Charleston with a few images and a few stories. Enjoy!
