A Day of Puffy Clouds

I’d like to thank all my readers who sent messages of concern last week when the hurricane blew by Florida. I sincerely appreciate your support. As expected here in central Florida away from the coast, we had a tropical storm warning (not a hurricane warning), rain, and wind. Yes, other areas were not so lucky. Tampa had extensive flooding and property destruction.

The next day was a regular sunny day with blue skies and puffy white clouds. I hope you enjoy the beautiful day I’m sharing. I wish you all beautiful days where you live.

The worse that can happen is possible loss of power for a while, but I don’t really expect that to happen either.

The next two months are really the height of hurricane season due to the heat build up on the ocean.
