BIG Storm
In my last post, I passed on the prediction that we would have bad weather today, and I also predicted I’d be called to fill in to deliver Meals on Wheels. They didn’t call me to fill in, but we did have a very bad storm. We didn’t have any damage or downed tree limbs, but the wind and rain were sort of terrifying. At nine o’clock this morning it was as dark as night, and we lost power for an hour and fifteen minutes. I had a Coleman lantern and a battery-powered radio to listen to, but the Diane Rehm show this morning was about President Obama’s speech last night about Afghanistan. It almost put me back to sleep. And, true to form, it kept getting colder as the day progressed. It’s typical winter weather in our parts, and it’ll be temperate again by next week.
