A Perfect Day--Almost

Another awesome spring day. Somewhere down the line, we will pay for this. In fact, as I write this,  severe thunderstorms hit the DFW area tonight and an unconfirmed tornado got very close to home. But, as spring storms go in Texas, big hail pelted several areas tonight with baseball size hail and tennis ball size and golf ball size hailstones.

The business has really gone through the ceiling of success since those early days of  rentals.

So, I will post one from three different events that I saw through my viewfinder during the course of the day.
