Last night we had one hell of a rain storm. Loud thunder, a great showing of lightening strikes as well. This morning as I was leaving for work I noticed that my neighbor’s tree had been hit, was down and was blocking their drive way. I don’t know if they even realized it at that point. I don’t get along all that well with them so I didn’t take the time to knock on their door to see if they were aware of the situation. Glad it wasn’t in my yard.
I can’t believe that the month of July is almost over. That leaves the month of August and then we will be getting ready for autumn. I love the fall season, but the thing that gets me is that after that old man winter will soon be knocking on our door step.
My favorite winter drink is made with Alpine’s Spiced Cider, which is found at all the grocery stores here in town. You just add hot water to the mix in the envelope and you are good to go.
I however like to add a shot of Captian Morgan’s 100% proof Spiced Rum, along with a cinnamon stick, which I add for the flavor and to use to stir the mixture with also. It makes for a wonderful winter beverage that will certainly put a smile on your face and warm your insides at the same time.
