A lovely day after a stormy night. We were fortunate as all we got was five minutes of very heavy rain, and then wind, but not damaging wind. I haven’t heard of any trees being blown down or other damage from the rain or wind. We live in a very good spot I am thinking. But I brought in the bird feeders and hanging plants so that they wouldn’t get blown away and cause damage. I put them all back out this morning as I knew the birds would like the feeders back. I think they were waiting. We are very thankful that the storm didn’t do damage here.
I believe South Carolina wasn’t ads fortunate as they had tornadoes and flooding rains, etc. The southern states have really experienced a rough spring this year with the tornadoes and rain and snow. Flooding ha been the biggest problem is some areas while others have had the tornadoes. East Tennessee has had the fires in the Smokies that have destroyed buildings, including homes and businesses. The people have been allowed back in some pf the ruins to see what is left and what can be done. Some are still being kept out due to hot spots. There will be a lot of rebuilding and putting lives and businesses back together. It is sad as Wear Valley is a very popular spot for tourists as well as people who live in the area. There area has cabins to rent and a store, and restaurant, a coffee/ ice cream shop, a fabric store, hiking trails, wild life and just plane beauty. Of course, that is only one place in Wear Valley. there are many other interesting and beautiful place in the area.
The cats are reminding me that their dinner is late. Pamela has been here and we played PUSH TEN, a card game. It was new to me and it was fun. She is gone for the weekend, and then back to work so I believe our afternoon games are over for awhile. It was fun.
