The big blow

The storm is out over the Gulf and we are finally getting kicked from the backside as the wind whips around and comes back at us from the west. Damage so far: One section of fence down in the back yard but the posts are still standing. Worse, a major limb on the key lime tree is broken off. That will seriously cut down on the key lime crop this year. Dang. But we didn't lose a roof or the house as hundreds of other people did. We didn't lose anybody at a school occupied by crazed terrorists who insanely thought they could bargain with a government that, like the U.S., does not bargain with terrorists. So from the global perspective, this is just a windy day.
