    Have a great weekend!

    Great shots. I suspect storm clouds are always welcome in New Mexico as long as they bring rain and not just lightning.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog.

    Love the colors-they make me think of fall, though.
    I just read the post before this, that looks interesting.

    Storms we can do without, but as a result, you got some wonderful pictures. Nicely done.
