Wet, Cold American Summer: Florida Edition

Yup, it was just that. The Family Florida Trek happened as per usual but without the usual summer weather. It wasn't particularly hot, and there were some pretty severe thunderstorms nearly each day.

Not the usual Florida Afternoon Showers, mind you, but black skies with crazy lightning and lots of rain (plus two bozos who -only- went swimming in the ocean while it was storming). Why put an end to the summer of non-stop rain that pummelled the Southeast this year?
Fortunately, it didn't rain -all- the time.. only a lot of it.
On the upside of it being cooler and cloudier than usual, I didn't broil like a lobster at all and almost completely avoided getting sunburned, so I guess that's something to be grateful for.
