After a week of seeing the damage last Sunday’s microburst caused in my neighborhood of The People’s Republic, I’m deeply grateful to have escaped without a scratch, to either person or property.
They’re still clearing away
fallen trees (although not at the old house surrounded by my cluster).
And I imagine dealing with
insurance companies is just adding more pain to the initial wounds.
I recognize that it’s pure
luck that has spared me—there are two very large, old trees in my back yard;
either of them could have fallen or been split. But I am grateful that they
didn’t.
I’m also grateful that I had
the windscreen with the leaky seal replaced on my car several weeks ago. Before
the multiple storms we’ve been having.
No swamp in the passenger
footwell.
