I took this one through the car winshield while driving down 183. Not as dangerous as it sounds- no one was moving.

After the wall of water that went through Texas, some pop-up showers passed near by on Wednesday. Taken towards Burnet County from a hill outside Leander on my way home.

We've had plenty of opportunities lately for this assignment, haven't we?
More photos here.
