Not enough

I got my thunderstorm. But it wasn't exactly what I wanted. No sirens. No whirling wind or circling clouds. The torrential rain didn't even come on the same day as the fantastic thunder and lightning. It came the day before. Yes, our power was knocked out, but that wasn't enough. I need to see damaged cars, or at least downed branches....

So, now I want to go somewhere. I want to go to the ocean. I suppose I could walk down the street and go to the Lake. But, then I have to pay to simply walk on the beach or go swimming. And I would much rather do that somewhere exotic, or at least a bit more beautiful than the murky waters of Lake Michigan. Paying to enjoy God's creation. Quite ridiculous....
