Rain and the wind
The picture is of the lake in our backyard. The level of the lake is way up and the trees around it are being blown around by the powerful 80+ MPH wind gusts.
I am actually writing this in the middle of Hurricane Jeanne! It is 11 am on Sunday morning and I am sitting on the floor outside my room (where I slept last night). It is crazy here!
All night as I slept I could hear the wind buffeting the windows and howling in between buildings. I could hear the rain splatting against the windows and the metal top of our screened in porch. It was a little creepy.
That and the fact that I abandoned my room for the floor right outside the door made it a very strange night! I slept in the hall and moved all my furniture away from the windows, just in case something bad happened like the windows being blown in (and wind and rain going everywhere.)
There is a mandatory curfew until 5pm, so I won’t be going anywhere today, and hopefully, I will have power all day so I can continue to watch TV and surf the net while I wait out the storm! If you see me online (AIM: ScottyP08), let’s chat! I have nothing else to do!
