Sounds like fun.  I love Thunderstorms.  Years back I bought a CD with 2 hours of thunderstorm sounds.  It was a clear night, so when I went to bed I put it on and turned it up fairly loud.  Shortly after my wife came in from work and said, "are you awake..?"  I said, "yes.."  She said, "there's a terrible storm tonight.-----BD-----Sounds like maybe your wife and Bianca were twins separated at birth.  Was she born in Honduras, by any chance?
