We had one hell of a storm move through the area last night. With the wind the way it was, I am not ashamed to say for the first time ever I was afraid. I knew the Old Man couldn't safely get down to the basement, so we moved to the kitchen table away from windows.
We made it through safely, but not without some drama. The wind was so strong that it blew open the door to the chicken coop - tearing off the latch along with the caribiner D-clip that keeps it locked. After the wind stopped, we saw our neighbor Meghan knocking on the back porch door - she wanted us to know that Large Marge was out of the coop. I went out there, wading through a lot of standing water, and managed to catch her and put her back in the coop. Meghan's husband Josh put the latch back on the door and all was well.
It was beautiful all day long today, albeit a bit windy. But a lot better than last night.
