Our power has been restored and we seem to be no worse from the hurricane. The big damage report thus far? Our orchid plant to a header off the shed, Troy’s on a recon mission to pick it up right now. My parents further south weren’t as lucky and will be heading to central Florida tomorrow to enjoy a lovely hotel with electricity. According to Mumsy Dearest lots of roof damage amongst their neighbors. Every tree and shrub that was once in the yard is now swimming in my parents pool as is part of the screen structure. My sister looked to green pastures to ride out the storm, heading to a friends house where they have a whole house generator - BURNED. While the generator is doing a great job for running the fridge and television, things like that don’t matter when the roof is 1/2 peeled off. The craziest part of this whole affair is how the hurricane seems to have drug in fall right behind it. I’m sitting here shivering in my fuzzy Pjs and amazed that the reported highs tomorrow will only be in the 60’s. Around here that’s practically arctic for this time of year.
