Here is a list of things to do during a hurricane:
- Listen to CBC (almost as exciting as something on CNN… no not really) CHECK
- Run around outside in the rain CHECK
- Work on front deck as the wind howls CHECK
- Do donuts on lawn tractor and drive through puddles in the downpour CHECK
- Climb up on roof, clean gutters, have ladder get blown down, look in window helplessly looking for someone to put the ladder back up, scramble down nearby tree branch CHECK
- Run hand in hand with your love down to the river in the pouring rain, getting soaked and giggling like school girls CHECK
- Start cleaning out your attic and laying down insulation for winder CHECK

Lesson 1: don’t use the ladder when it’s blowing like a banshee and raining drops the size of toonies outside (and if you do and you’re the one holding the ladder steady, don’t look up … you’ll choke from the water going up your nose) – a lesson we learned in 2003 when Juan came to play and filled the gutters with leaves… :>
Lesson 2: wear a WATERPROOF jacket with a HOOD when standing in the doorway during a hurricane coaxing a dog who is scared to go out to do her business in all that noisy rain and wind …
Lesson 3: After the first hour, CBC radio during a storm is an exercise in masochism…
That was fun 🙂 love you!
