Dinner at 8002

Margaret & I flew back down to Florida today, for a few days away from the snow; we flew down with neighbor Pat, who then headed off to her daughter in Sarasota, while we stayed at 8002 with Joanne & Earle, who have been trying out winter in Florida and staying at 8002 for the last few weeks (and for a couple more weeks still). As thanks, they prepared a lovely dinner for us this evening 🙂

If a tree falls …

Reminiscent of the philosophical riddle, but rather more serious when it happens next door! While our neighbors Joanne and Earle are away, we’re watching their house – I check for working heat and no flooding from the heavy rain, but never thought to check for fallen trees! But their son Jason came home and found it … Luckily, the tree almost completely missed the house, so little to no damage; maybe just some shingles need work:

We assume it blew down last weekend when we had big wind and rain.
