Cumulus Calling!

[GroundZero 0]

I walked out side for a quick smoke and the sky caught my eye. A thunderstorm was building beyond the ridge. I could see a towering cumulus growing and even heard thunder in the distance. The sight was a first for this season, yes it appears that the summer season is here in Tennessee.
I know well the fury of a thunderstorm (even bent an airplane flying through one in my early piloting days). But I love to skirt the power of the rising cumulus. Blame it on my Bird-man suit.
It is a magnificant sky as I walk to the parking lot to begin my long drive home. The power of the storm has waned, now it looks peaceful. I have to go back there...
Welcome back summer with your gorgeous Cumes! I look forward to flying through your canyons. I love these inviting cumulus.
Anyone want to join me?

I would GZ but I don't have enough jumps to fly the Wing Suit. Guess I need to start jumping more...season is around the corner.

Dan,
Saturday looks like a "perfect" day for the cumulus... may be on and off all day with scattered t-storms... just like yesterday!
See ya then,
Chris
