Some awesome pics there. I bet you see crap out there in the open that we dont get to necessarily see.

Sometimes I'll see a storm and check the radar, it'll be 2-3 hours away. Pretty neat when those cumulonimbus hit the atmosphere.

Because of the shape of the caprock, storms usually pass to the south or to the north of where I am. Odessa, about 15 miles away, often gets more rainfall then here. Watching the storms go around here on all sides can be pretty cool.

Those are amazing! Whereabouts is the ranch, if we can ask?
I thought that I saw the "Bandera cross" in one pic, but don't remember a windmill farm...

Sure.... big town of Fluvanna, TX. Used to have a biker bar and post office. We don't have either now. Town is really thriving.

Very neat how the caprock aids in storm development and pattern change.

Here's the morning's storm departing Pipe Creek for San Antonio. Three inches of rain for us:

My understanding is, Fluvanna used to be a happening spot back then.

Interesting how town just slowly dwindle away. The only substance Fluvanna has now is the wind farm.

Sounds like it's getting better. To me anyway.

Seems like it's rained every night for a week up here. Yard is going bonkers. Best it's looked in years.
