Okay. We've survived Ernesto. I think the worst thing Brent and I had to deal with was the ninety minute wait for the oh so exciting call saying that school was closed today. Our power was out, so we sat listening to the only radio we could find (needless to say we were not really ready). The DJ kept promising updates but would only play commercials and then a song or two. The water had backed up from the drains to block our driveway, so I told Brent I was just going to go back to bed. That's when the call came through - and the radio announced - school was closed. I'm worse than the kids on snow days.
We had water up to the curb, but not in the yard, thank the good Lord. No real trees or branches, just lots of yard trash which I will leave for the guy that cuts our grass.
Brent and I went out around 11 to see what kind of damage we could see - I took some pictures but haven't downloaded anything yet - will do that next and post anything good here -
I think that the National Weather Service may want to rethink when hurricane season starts and ends. Seems to start and end later every year. But that could just be me.
