North Carolina is having a hurricane. Last I saw, it was a level 4...perhaps to hit at level 3 if we were lucky. The coast was battered most of the night and heavy wind and rain still makes its presence known.
My husband and I drank coffee on the back porch under a still, cloudless, blue sky. The air was cool and the dogs spastic as usual. Who would have thought a hurricane was even possible.
I am reminded this morning that the person sitting next to me on Sunday morning or standing in the check-out line at the grocery may be drinking coffee under blue skies or may be in the midst of gale force winds. It's interesting that we can be so close and still so far away.
