Relief at last...until the power went out.
Ferocious storms trampled through Conway last night, tossing empty garbage cans into the street and flinging patio furniture across backyards. Aided and abetted by the famous killer trees there was much glee and destruction before the clouds wandered off to tear up the eastern part of the state.
Casualties? My poor dad, often the victim of the huge lob-lolly pines in his backyard was hit again. This time? The maple at the end of the driveway which fell, snagging the power line, ripping the service box from the side of the house causing siding carnage, and landing on the neighbor's roof. There were no injuries unless you count the bamboo which was destroyed or the roof of the house, but all people present seems to have escaped with only a new appreciation for the vicious temperament of Conway's trees.
Mom and I, bored in our powerless and increasingly stuffy house, decided to cruise around town and check things out. We found lots of flooding, no surprise since the town's built on a swamp, and branches everywhere.
Dad has home owner's insurance. We had power again by 7:30. All in all, not as bad as things could have been.
Now, if only I could manage about three consecutive days of quiet and boredom...
