If we could perceive that with the naked eye, the beach would be dazzling!

True, we'd have to wear shades.

Meanwhile, aren't you glad you'll never see this in your house?

I used to see a few Rhino Beetles at work during the Summer months. We had really bright lights on the parking lot and they'd fly in at night and I'd see them crawling around the next morning

Wow! It took 25 years for the water to recede which means the whole place is still a big lake. But even if a new wall is rebuilt, would you want to live or visit there? Not me! I can't swim that fast. It's an eerie site!

Look at the tires on the upside down car. Looks like the rubber is still intact.

As I was walking across a parking lot today, I noticed a couple mocking birds drinking from an overturned bottle of chocolate milk near a garbage can. Knowing first what effect chocolate milk has on my grand kids, I'd say someone's in for an all nighter.....
