Wordless Wednesday – let your (photo)s tell your story. Summer storm over the lake.

Storm warning….shelf cloud

An artistic piece of driftwood.

An eerie sight….

but I do love turquoise…..

After the storm…all clear
(Photos not mine – they belong to a friend who rented a cottage, but are too good not to share.)
Gorgeous…even if they’re borrowed

Exhilarating! Reminds me of summer thunderstorms on a Florida beach, viewed from the cottage, of course.

Thanks Jo. I always find a summer storm over the lake exciting…..viewed from a safe distance of course, not out on the water!

Those are amazing photos, all the shades of blue and that shelf cloud … your friend captured it all and you’re right – it was too good not to share. P.S. – I had to look up “NB” … first time I’d seen that written. Where have I been as it was even in “Urban Dictionary”.

I think it’s short form for an additional Note? Like PS is short for post script…..I don’t know, it’s maybe something we learned in school???

Because I was curious, I looked it up and from the meaning I thought it was something you most likely learned in school and maybe Latin.

Oh, the urban dictionary meaning is bad….I’ll just edit it out. According to the Collins English Language dictionary “You write NB to draw someone’s attention to what you are about to say or write. for example NB The opinions stated in this essay do not necessarily represent those…..”

I just went back to the Urban Dictionary and didn’t notice anything bad for NB – it was the same meaning as Collins English Dictionary. Did I miss something? I would have told you … well that’s weird. When I saw it was Latin and the meaning, I figured you used it in conjunction with work. I have to tell you that sometimes when I’m writing and use a phrase or old-fashioned saying of some type, that maybe I grew up hearing, or my mom used, etc., I Google it because often it is a double entendre and that surprises me. How does it go from one meaning to another – yikes!

I guess it is Latin meaning take notice…. “Nota bene is a Latin phrase, often used after a paragraph to give an extra importance to a particular idea or thought. Also could be written as: NB.” Linda, I can’t find what I saw when I googled it before – some derogatory hip-hop slang meaning. No worries….
Urban Dictionary: NB

I know a few Latin phrases from work, but not all that many. When I did litigation I knew more phrases. And I did medical malpractice work for years and knew a few Latin names there. Okay.
