Today

I am in the process of taking a Genetics class. I have two classes left and I decided to take this class, because I have a strong interest in genetics. I have taken a genetics class based on the brain and behavior. This current class is based on overall Biology. It is also on the main college campus. I am still trying to figure out where the University of Penn begins and Drexel ends. I have never seen, so many buildings that take up Market, Chestnut and Walnut Streets.
If I need 25 credit hours per year for my employer, I may as well take something of interest.
Anyway, the discussions in class are really interesting, since many folks base their opinions on their own religious beliefs. As for myself, I am glad I have a choice. I do not allow religion to cloud my decisions.
Anyway or who,
Last night Bill & I stood on the balcony and watched a tornado touch down in the distance, then immediately get suck back up in the clouds. The winds were different last night. They seem to have been moving in all directions, north, south, east and west. We had to bring plants into the house and secure others on the balcony. Thankfully, they all survived. We are on the top floor and tornadoes have a habit of ripping off roofs. I guess if we saw/heard one coming in our direction, we would have had to go through the emergency exit to the stairwell for safety. We are perched high as it is and can look down upon the valley. On a clear day, we can see the highest buildings in Center City.
The storm came in like a demon in the sky.
Then greeted us with absolute beauty.
