We had a rain storm Friday evening and while eating our
dinner there was one clap of thunder, yes, only one, but
what a noise, the house shook, and I expected the roof to
cave in. I went out on the deck and looked around and didn't
see anything wrong. Found out a little later there was a strike
right behind us, up on top of the bluff, hit a hickory tree.
It's the tree just to the left of the house up on the bluff.
