...por lo menos en Copan!
Sorry for the title. Couldn't resist myself! In any case, it was a very peaceful Sunday in Copan. I didn't go out too much because the heat was stifling, but I caught up on some reading and took some (accidental) naps. It looked like it was going to rain later in the afternoon, and I think the skies finally opened up for at most 30 seconds. Last year, we were practically inundated with rain; showers would start at about 2 pm every day and go through the evening. This year's rainy season apparently started a couple weeks earlier than normal, in early May. But by mid-May the rains had subsided, and now we are currently in a bit of a dry spell that has left everyone a tad confused. Weird weather? I blame global warming!
But the most exciting news of the day came from my hometown of Aurora, CO where a small tornado blew through earlier today. Why do I always miss the exciting stuff? Everyone is fine, thank goodness. The Southlands Mall near my house was hit pretty hard, and I saw some of the eerie aerial photos of the damage on 9news' website. Mom, Dad, and Christine were eating in a restaurant at the mall when the tornado hit, and apparently Mom drove the car home "like an ambulance." And, of course, it's Colorado so the tornado was accompanied by golfball-sized hail.
The moral of this story? Facebook's news feed is good for something! If I hadn't seen the upteen messages about/photos of the tornado posted to the home page within the span of about 2 minutes, I never would have known about it. Facebook, to the rescue!
Also, that makes two natural disasters that I missed by the narrow margin of a few days. I should buy a Powerball ticket!
Have a great night. Keep me updated!
