So we didn't get hammered by the typhoon... story of our life. Always stay prepared, always tying up, untying, cleaning up, trimming branches, keeping stock of food and water, and the storm never comes. But that's a good thing. I really don't want to experience a real natural disaster while living overseas.
The storm is passing just south of us. We aren't even experiencing any rain, just wind. Our trees have lost all the dead growth and leaves which is nice. Now all we have to do is rake. Work never stops here...not until it's REALLY bad. It was business as usual.
