Well, we’re still upright…
That’s about the best I can say.
Last night was a real experience. The wind was blowing so hard that I went out about 3am to let the window awnings in. Luckily, it wasn’t raining but boy, was the wind blowing. I also cranked down the roof TV antenna since it was also making noises I had never heard before.
The satellite dish had already blown over earlier in the evening, so it was no longer a problem. I just left it there.
While I was outside I kept hearing the strangest chirping, snapping sound coming across the swamp behind us. At first I thought it was some animal in the swamp. But I finally realized it was the sound the wind made hitting the the still out awnings of the RV’s behind us across the swamp.
And then about 4am I went back out to cut down the windchimes that had been hanging from the awning arms and were now being slammed aginst the side of the coach.
And then about 6am a burst of thunder that sounded like it was about 5 feet over our heads, made the coach rock on the levelers. Man, that was loud!
And then today, not having got a lot of sleep last night, Jan and I stayed around the coach all day, napped, and ate leftover pizza.
Hopefully, tomorrow will be better…
