Room with a view

The sun came out for an hour this morning. I was finally able to take some pictures of the magnolias in the light. We are supposed to get the tail end of a tornado today so it will more than likely debloom my trees. I have a princess magnolia that grows outside my bathroom window on the first floor and my loft on the second. It's a beautiful view when the magnolias are in bloom.

  Today I'm going to go to the loft and read a book. If I can't concentrate I might put on some music , Norah Jones would suit the bill and dust my bookshelves. I like to take the books off once a year and give them a dusting. I never fail to find an old friend I haven't visited with in awhile. I'll also collect the ones I'm going to read this summer while I'm laying out.
 I promised I would go to the basement if the tornado sirens go off.  Five people were killed in Arkasas .  Being in tornado alley you get used to dealing with them but this is supposed to be a bad one. I prefer to watch the storm, it kinda does it for me. All that energy. 
Maybe I'll just have a cup of tea and look out the window for awhile.
your welcome to join me...

If I'm not back sometime check the news and see if we got hit.
It's the luck of the draw sometimes.
