I had a vision. My camera couldn’t see it.

😇 I’ll survive….

I stayed awake until 3:30am, when this last storm-blotch moved on. We were lucky. We had wind and rain, but no tornado and no power outage.

I was Weather Aware this morning when I took this at 7:30am New Time. As I recall, there was more orange along the horizon, or what passes for horizon here, so in my mind’s eye, it was a much more striking image.

We are even now very Weather Aware, listening to the noisy, gusting wind (to 47mph right now, my app says), and waiting for a nasty line of storms to come through, when is it? perhaps 11pm or midnight, then continuing for hours. Maybe I’ll really be able to sleep around 6am. I’m predicting yawns for most of tomorrow.

Note that I have not mentioned tr__s.

Okay, one more photo from yesterday’s tour…I took this to use here, truth be told, but I was distracted by minutia, and didn’t use it yesterday, so, Shazam, here it is today!

I had the distinct good fortune to tour the May Patterson Goodrum House, by invitation of our lovely neighbor D. It was designed by Georgia’s own Philip Trammell Shutze (1890–1982), and built in 1930. The Watson-Brown Foundation, which owns the house, aims to decorate it to what the house was like in 1936 (as I understand it). The house is on West Paces Ferry just southeast of the Governor’s Mansion (which merely dates to 1969).

The details are what I remember most. This is the view south on the large, high-ceilinged screen porch at the east end of the house.

Chandelier detail, dining room.

Above door, main living room.

South façade of the garage, designed to evoke a church. It overlooks an interesting garden.

Blue-purple? Purple-blue? Or perhaps just a shade of blue?
