Some times a single spark can ignite the entire world. Genius with all of its demons always passes too quickly.
We don't have the kind of exciting summer storms in central Oregon that are found to the south/east, not as many anyway...

But this summer we've had quite a bit more than average thunderstorms in the Bend area, including a couple that produced quarter-size hail -- which is very unusual for this area.
