A Thunderous Beginning

Our group met again for the first time, this time in our new home, and there was a raging thunderstorm going on when we got there. It was most cool to feel the wind on our faces (without the rain) and watch the lightning while standing in the Lion posture (turning around when we switched sides so we could keep watching it). We did strikes and turning to the rumble of increasingly distant thunder, and by the time we started to work on some applications and forms, a fairly nice rainbow had spread across the Eastern sky. It was, I think, a fitting tribute to getting together again and beginning anew this phase of our training. I'm very excited about this, and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone.
