As June came to a close a conga line of storms moved through the area. With the forecast as it was I immediately went outside to check the web.
The last storm passed through around 4:00 pm so Maxine and I went down to get the mail and inspect the damage.
The grape arbor couldn't withstand the strong winds.
The garden got whipped around but that will bounce back. And then....
I saw the willow tree by the Bus.
The kombi gods must have been smiling upon me as the tree just grazed the drivers side corner.
The storm has passed.
As night approached and the electricity still out
Susie shelled snow peas by candle light as we listened to music on the i-pod.
By 10:00 pm still now power as we played cribbage. Trying to conserve the cold in the fridge and yet I managed to quickly extract a beer with minimal loss of coldness.
The lineman rolled through around 1:45 am and by 3:00 the power had been restored.
Can you say backup generator!
