Luke and I ventured out to the store around 6 for some sushi for dinner and got poured on upon our return to the car.  But we had a good time.  He loves the rain and helped me pick out some flowers for Diane.  The rain falls harder now, into the wee hours of the morning before I slide over the two feet to my right and into bed.  Driving home from her house, the storms clustered &#8217;round, and the low clouds and ambient mist carried the brightness of the heat lightning, eerily illuminating the whole sky with each flash.  I welcome the sense of safety offered by the house, a closed door and blankets at night, as the drops cascade down the eaves onto the ground all around.<\/p>\n<p>Good weekend.  She went flying with me yesterday morning.  She wasn&#8217;t scared at all, but loved it.  It was just a short hop over to Lewisville, finding her house (which I had several times before), a short visit to Twin Lakes and then back to Sugar Valley.  The landing at Twin Lakes was a little clunky, but certainly not unsafe, and the landing at Sugar Valley was a greaser, efficient and smooth.  I was glad I was able to give her at least one.  She took copious numbers of pictures on her cell phone and posted many <a href=\"http:\/\/awakeningtohim.livejournal.com\/21459.html\">here<\/a>.  Some are from last weekend when Luke came out to the airport.<\/p>\n<p>She has now been privy to just about every area of interest and current experience:  Flying, working on cars, stargazing, worldview\/apologetics\/theology gatherings, art museums, concerts, movies and various and sundry other outings.  It means the world to me that she would join me in all these things.  She is beautiful, I am overjoyed to be with her and completely in love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rainy evening.
