Hey all

Kudos to Stephen’s parents for not having an unlisted number. Stephen is safely in Delaware, sans luggage. He’s currently being fed zucchini bread prior to falling into bed.

 

Wind. Oh yeah, and Weather

You know how they say “It’s raining cats and dogs” ? In some parts of the Midwest, they say “It’s raining pitchforks and hammer handles”, which I think just rolls off the tongue so nicely. In Wales, it rains old women and walking sticks.

Here, they have expressions like “When the wind blows the dog off the chain.” Yep. One of those mornings today.
