Ahh yes...Springtime in St. Louis...

We had our first major hailstorm this afternoon and it was the first time I'd been on the boat during one.  Tim was up in the clubhouse finishing some teak for my new stovetop cutting board (more to follow) but I was on the boat making pasta when it hit.  It was the most unbelievable loud thing I've ever heard, especially on the seahood.  Fortunately none of our new hatches were damaged in spite of some quarter-sized hail.

Wow! That is awful! I cannot remember the last time I saw hail that large. Glad your boat did not sustain damage during that storm.

We do have some amazing hail storms here in St. Louis. I once was in a Camaro with T-tops during a golf ball sized hail storm that broke all the windows and mirrors and cracked the T-top. Insurance companies just love St. Louis (not).
