Awesome!!!
Some other good safety tips that people don't really know, is to NOT use an umbrella in an electric storm, turn off as many electric devices in your home as possible, unplug the ones you care about, and stay out of the windows. Lightening travels through glass, and is attracted to water, wood, and metal. Don't be on the phone, in the tub, or doing dishes during a storm. Listen for weather updates because storms develope and move quickly.
Stay safe.
