Tropical Storm Ernesto

We spent Monday and Tuesday getting ready for a possible hurricane. Thankfully, it never became a hurricane, only a tropical storm so it didn't affect us much. We just got our accordion shutters installed and we were ready. What a difference from the other shutters. Last year it took us more than a day to install them, with lots of people helping us, and this time it took only an hour to close them all.

Schools were closed Tuesday and Wednesday and they will reopen tomorrow. The kids were happy to be out of school but they are ready to go back. Today it was windy and rained from time to time so we stayed home. We spent the day playing board games, cards, reading and watching TV. Don went to work both days so for him it was just normal days.
