Lightning tree-August 27, 2017

Remember the tree across the street that was struck by lightning? I decided that Hannah, Zoey and I should go check it out. And I am glad we did. For a reason I cannot explain I thought it would be soft and mushy. Quite the opposite. It was as hard as concrete. It was really light in color with no sign of where the bolt entered the tree. But you could sure tell where the bolt came out.

We talked about the tree and touched it. I let it soak in.

Then Hannah asked if lightning was hotter than the sun?

I told her no, but lightning could really hurt you badly.
