We got off easy post-hurricane–an overturned camp chair full of skeletons was easily put right, though a roof skeleton is still prostrate from the ordeal.  Whereas much of the south is under water, downed trees and utility poles, without power, and literally cut off from the outside world.  So I’d say we made out OK!

Like roof skelly, my overnight stay (so Avdi could get out) mostly involved lying down on the job, tossing and turning, with bizarre, twisted dreams when I finally slept.  Other than that, it was nicely non-eventful.

It’s more eventful in the garden, where pollinators are in a frenzy to take advantage of the masses of goldenrod, asters, boneset or snakeroot, and other fall natives.  I finally got some calendula to bloom (the bright orange annuals).
