Will A Me? Nah...

Having a blustery storm day of the well publicized nor'easter kind. It's going fairly well in my area. The usually very calm, sheltered cove near the window actually had the largest breaker waves I've seen since Hurricane Bob in '91. At two hours past high tide, the water level's still at the regular high water mark. The seaweed deposits show the water was up to the grass area above the beach sand. I didn't check the beach out until the storm waned. I feel fortunate to be on a south-facing shore village. The Portugese fisherman left his boat n platform at the mooring, n it's still floating. I'm sure North-facers aren't fairing as well. Seas are pretty high up out there. It's hangin at a steady 43 degrees F on the thermometer now.
Looks like lots a high altitude snow in hills north and west for MB. I heard this pm that even Pittsburg got snow.

This morning a dump-truck hauling a mobile house-trailer tipped over on the Bourne bridge, glad I missed it! Bet everyone was very late for work. That's a very windy spot with all the construction sections flapping loudly overhead. That off-season traffic has been hell on the daily bridge hoppers this year, worse than before when I was doing it. The ferry service was down too.

I still have power. The worst of the mess seems to be the wet, wind-blown leaves n branches everywhere in the road. Ya know it wasn't too bad here when none of the couple hundred trees across the street are down (that I could see in my travels). They've already gone through many high winds before. The rest of the hardy flowers out on the deck that'd still survived all now have bent stems. It could be much worse, I'm lucky. Still pretty gusty out there, The 3' tall cosmos are flagulating themselves against the window... ouch!
The stores were dead as a door-nail during errands around noon-time, usually it's much busier. It's another economy-buster!

I feel for all of the many villages blown and flooded to shreds this year, the list is getting so long for one season, I hope it doesn't get longer. Looks like alot of places I've seen when in Miami got a good whacking. Wonder what the 6 pm high tide will do to the rest of the MA coast. Looks like I'm getting through this one alright, and I'm grateful! It's amazing my connection is working!
