The scroll on the weather channel said strong winds 60 - 70 mph frequent lightning,golf ball size hail. 2 hrs earlier i had seen a houseboat on a leisurely cruise, music on the front deck Momma dancing in her chair, Dad on the top deck,serving as Captain lil ones running around taking in the sights. As I watched the trees start to bend over, and the waves reach white cap levels i knew it was going to be a big storm, All the boats seemed to have found there way off the lake. The waves I noticed, were getting even bigger, they went from white caps, to almost 1.5' waves in about 20 minutes time. Then I noticed the house boat that I'd seen earlier headed toward the dam with the wind at its back. My thought was, He's running out of river to run from the storm on. By this time the wind was at its peak and the rain had my visibility down to about 100'. The house boat had vanished in the storm, and my curiousity about the conditions on the boat were as piqued as the weather. Then as I watched, the houseboats lights,reappeared, dim in the blinding rain, coming back up river with waves crashing on her bow, I was relieved to see they had made the turn and still under power. I later went out for a ride and spoke to the fearless(or fearful ) Capt floating around in calm water hardly a puff of a breeze blowing, The music was playing, the same beat I had heard a few hours earlier and the weekend was continuing aboard the ( insert name here ).
I heard what I'm going to say was Mom, from about 100'. Talking in a high pitch voice, I can only magine it was the "tale of the storm"
