Ride the Lightning

Last night a big storm rolled through northern New Jersey around 11 PM and brought a ton of lightning along with it. One of the bolts happened to strike a tree in my backyard, which exploded some of the tree and left a huge scar down the side. There were pieces of wood all over the yard and even on the roof of the house, which is a good distance from the tree. Not only did the bolt damage the tree but also it went through the fence separating the yards and electrified the threshold of my neighbor’s door which shocked one of their dogs when they went out this morning.
