Storm watch

I thought I’d do my post for Tuesday while I’ve still got a solid Internet connection. We are at the beginning of a sever storm watch. Judging from past experience, there’s a better than even chance that my Internet will go down. Such is life in the woods at the end of a very long line back to civilization. There are too many trees and some are going to take down wires.

Last night a couple of thunderstorms rolled through. My lovely wife said it looked like there was a lightning strike near our beach. All I know is that the thunder was loud enough to shake the house. I’m not going to wander down to the beach with a possible hail storm on its way.

While I can do without the hail, I’m actually counting on a bit more rain. When the sun came out I soaped up the boat. Rather than run the hose out to it I’m waiting on the rain to do a rinse job. Eventually we’ll have some decent weather and I’ll launch the boat off the trailer.

In other news, my lovely wife and I checked a few more potential tow vehicles. Once this bad weather passes I’m going to make a few phone calls and make some some serious offers. The worse they can say is no.
