Francisco was the architect and principal mechanic in this venture, his sister and cousin supplying the rough materials. Their party had just begun to go well, when they were startled by a vivid flash of light. They dropped the stones from their hands and looked about. They hadn't expected lightning on a day so fair, but lightning, whether logical or not, meant to them a thunderstorm. Yet the trees were still. There was no wind. The sky was blue as it had ever been."But it could mean a storm," Lucia said; "I think we'd better get ready to go home."They began to gather their things and look to the sheep, when suddenly another flash of light, strange and unexplained, held them in speechless wonder.
