lucky we don’t live in too much of a sylvan setting. Last nights high winds took down the basketball hoop that has been at the top of the driveway for 16 years. I let the dogs out this AM and DaVinci barked bc something looked different and I peered at it and saw that it was the hoop laying on its back in the yard. It is weighted with sand in the base and has never moved heretofore.
One of my lids for a garbage can was missing this morning as I drove out. Must have blown down the street.
Meanwhile, this is going on, finally and with some excitement:
We had some wicked booms of thunder just after 1 this morning, but the really creepy part was the voice on the public warning system after the sirens telling everyone to go inside.
There will be a lot of cranky, sleep deprived people around here today, everyone says they were up for at least an hour as the thunder and really strong wind gusts passed through early this morning.
