My mind was cast back to fun times when I was a kid tonight, when my children, awestruck by the wonder of a hail storm went outdoors to collect up over 9 cups of hail to store in our refrigerator.

The simple joy and wonder of seeing hail for the first time, filled our house with a childish buzz of excitement.  There were cries of “my fingers are freezing” and “quick come and look at this”.  It just reminded me of first times and how they fill us with wonder.  I guess that is the down side of growing older – the whole been there done that part of living.

For your viewing pleasure, I thought we’d share our hailstones with you…now to work out whether they are edible or not!
