Waiting for the Storm by peggysirk

Waiting for the Storm

The size and age of the trees in the neighborhood creates some anxiety when severe weather is in the forecast. The forecast has been calling for high, wind, hail, heavy rain, and possible tornadoes for this morning and afternoon. So far just gloomy skies and drizzle.
Three Good Things:
1. Starting the day off with a phone call from my sister
2. Getting next month's soup kitchen menu planned. I'll be on my own in the kitchen...(not a good thing).
3. NCAA March Madness starts tonight. I predict either WVU or Tennessee will take home the trophy...or maybe Baylor or Gonzaga.
Those trees are beautiful but I know what you mean about proximity to property. Not 200 lunches on your own???

@judithg The other two 'chefs' will be away for three weeks. One to Colorado to help with grandchildren while her daughter-in-law recovers from cancer surgery. The other will be clearing a section of the Appalachian Trail in NC prior to spring opening. So I will be the only 'chef', though I'll have two wonderful people helping with food prep, packing lunches, and clean up. I might put in a request for two more volunteers. I think we'll need them. ☺

Nicely captured - it does look like it could storm any minute - hope the bad weather forecast is wrong! And Go Tennessee!

What a beautiful neighborhood, looks nice and walkable. Those trees that look so stately in good weather do make for some sleepless nights during storms. For all the hype for these storms, my sister in Atlanta said all they got was rain and a bit of thunder in the night. And you will do fine with the prep!

Beautiful neighbourhood, i can't imagine cooking for 200. Wishing you the best.

I can see why you would be concerned with storms. Must be nice to walk down this street in the summer under all those trees.
