we prepared…

then we waited, and waited, and waited for the eye of the storm…
while waiting:
we walked in the rain,
we did a little more unpacking,
we cleaned the house,
we cooked lots of food,
we filled our bath-tubs to store extra water,
we were lazy…

and, not much else happened.

in our neck of the woods, lots of old trees fell. tree branches were broken and covered the streets and yards,
but nothing more that couldn’t be cleaned up in a day.

…quite simply, it turned out to be two solid days of rain, giving us a good reason to stay inside.
