Driving through Iowa, just outside of Ames. Mrs. Barbarian was at the wheel, and as we passed the wind generator, the incoming storm made a perfect backdrop. Picked up my phone and got a pretty good image.

I did a painting of a storm approaching.

That's a really good depiction of an ominous storm, of the sort seen so often in the Midwest. Those appear to be wall clouds, strongly convecting cells that if they tilt, can become tornadoes. Well done.

Driving through Iowa,

I heard that that place is incredible! I’ve even heard that some people mistake it for Heaven.

The funny thing is, a lot of the evil oozing out of the culture wars elsewhere, just doesn't work in Iowa. Even people who disagree strongly, often still regard each other as friends.

That might be a heavenly situation.

I loved that movie.
"Is this heaven?"
"No, it's Iowa."

Nice! The Mid-West has the best storms / clouds.

In college, we used to set up lawn chairs on the top of the house, to watch the wall clouds and funnels.

When you grow up in the Midwest you develop a fatalistic lack of respect for tornadoes.

I’ve basically literally done that.

“Twister’s comin’!”
*drags out the lawn chairs*
