Nature Diary.. Peace at home...Mandala

Oh my! What a crazy, mad day weatherwise.. Winds fit to blow trees over and to throw anything and everything hurling through the air like missiles. And it went on throughout the day and into the night. Goodness knows what daylight will reveal.
But safely sheltered indoors, with doors and windows securely fastened, I sat quietly working on another pattern, using my box of coloured pencils, while trying to ignore the insanity of the raging weather outside, and hoping there wouldn't be too much damage done overnight.
