Went out for pizza in between all the nasty weather

It was yummy!

I have no idea why we were out in this. Tonight's news said we had 9.75 inches of rain in the last two days and more is on its way tonight.

[Marilynne]

The hawk let me get fairly close, then flew to another part of the wire. After the third time, I guess it figured my camera and I were not a threat and let me get almost under it.
