I had my cousin Megan today and us three girls were going to go swimming. We knew it was going to rain so we ran to walmart to waste some time and let it pass. Dad called me while we were there and said it was hailing at his work. We payed to our stuff and headed to the car to get home and get my car under the carport. We got home and I started in on making the girls a home made pizza. We were all in the kitchen when we heard the loudest lightning strike I have EVER heard in my life, then the power went out. We went out on the patio and Megan said she saw some people running around and I thought oh they were just running to their car or something. Well no that wasn't the case. We heard sirens and I thought maybe there was a wreck on Harkrider. Well that wasn't the case either. That lighting strike that knocked the power out hit a tree at The Gathering right behind our house and it caught fire. It burned 20 minutes before they knew what was going on. Smoke was blowing everywhere and fire trucks were parking in my yard. I thought oh great this could get bad. Luckily they got it all out and nobody was hurt. I snapped some pics with my iphone to show you guys. It was just bananas!!
