We went for a walk first, and the sky was beautiful. To the north, we could see some pretty big clouds that looked they had rain coming down.

The rest of the night was a huge lightning show in all directions around us. No rain though.<\/p>\n<p>We slept in the truck bed, and much to my surprise, it was very comfortable. I can definitely see doing a big southwest road truck and camping out this way. The night got very windy, but we were snug in the truck.<\/p>\n<p>In the morning, we woke up to see a half dozen deer, the first we&#8217;ve seen on our property. They were beautiful. We had also seen some <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/File:Chordeiles_minorEJN31CB.jpg\">nighthawks<\/a> and bats the night before.
