Home Decor, Hurricane Weary

Having a coastal home for 31 years means we’ve experienced a lot of hurricanes and storms

 

 

We’ve seen all kinds of crazy things, a couple of years ago we had an inch of hail in April!

 

 

Hurricanes are the definite downside of the life in paradise, we try to think of them as “merely a brief interruption of good weather,” but that’s hard to do this year when they have been so devastating to so many

 

 

As I write this on Saturday, we aren’t on a Hurricane Watch this time but under a Hurricane Warning

 

 

The morning is cloudy, but calm and very humid

 

 

Everything outside has been secured, and the furniture brought inside

 

 

The weather channel is broadcasting from here, Orange Beach AL, with forecasters to the east of us in Pensacola and west of us in Mobile, Biloxi and New Orleans and north in Birmingham

 

 

We debated about leaving, but because the storm was supposed to be a fast moving Cat 1 we decided to stay, Birmingham could actually be just as bad…

 

 

This time on Sunday the sun is supposed to be back out…

 

 

And hopefully we will be busy moving the furniture back outside and getting things back to normal and living as usual

 

 

I have written a few posts for next week, that will publish on schedule, but if you don’t hear from me, it’s because we lost power…

 

 

But fingers crossed, we will have minimal damage and outages…

Prayers to everyone dealing with this challenging hurricane season
