Re: Lightning
A few years ago, while on vacation, the family and I were passing through the Black Hills in South Dakota. We camped just a short drive from Mt. Rushmore. In the eveniings ,after dark, they have a little ceremony where they shine lights on the carved faces. Since we were close, we decided to go see it. As we were driving to the monument, we could see thunderstorms in the distance. By the time we got there, they had moved in closer.
Before they light up the faces, they give a presentation talking about the history of Mt. Rushmore. As the talk progressed a cell moved in just behind and above the monument, The resulting lightning flashes would briefly light up or backlight the faces. Every time it happened everyone in the audience would ooh and awe.
By the time they got around to turning on the lights, it was anti-climatic
