- taken when sunshine filtered through Dogwood leaves on a warm day - today, I'd have to slog through the rain to possibly get a shot - but with rain and winds gusting - not going to even try - if any shots are taken - they will be through my trusty windows - Hurricane Michael has become a Tropical Storm - looking out my window, the rains are here - we are supposed to get in one day - what we usually get in the entire month of October - the hatches are battened down - nothing that can get caught in a gust has been left out - just hoping some of our neighbors have also - would hate to have stuff thrown at our home - but, one does what one can - the rest is wait - at least this one isn't crawling like Florence did - we moved home to North Carolina from Florida - but the Hurricanes got our forwarding address _____________________________________________________________ Update on Tropical Storm Michael - he is gone ! Had wind gusts of 50mph - few branches down but we are fine. The worst part for us - no power = no way to fix coffee! Power restored (we were of the 25,000 who lost power) - fridge /freezer clean out and re-stock.. It is very interesting the things one can discover to do when you have flashlights and candles.. Kudos to our Power Company for getting 25,000 customers back... in 24 or less hours
