@snowflake954 The drought, how's it lookin' over in your neck of the woods. I'm still watching the vigil. They mentioned the quiet stillness that was around her. It brought a sense of peace in the midst of everyone. That's what you do, too. You're the queen of your family's castles.

The drought broke in early August. At 3:00 in the morning---a huge BOOM! Stuff was flying in the bathroom, big umbrella pines were waving and shaking like crazy. Thank goodness I'd closed the awning up on the terrace off our bedroom. The wind and lightning was something. Then we lost power. It didn't come back until 3:00 in the afternoon. The storm didn't last long. Trees went down on the powerlines. I had pine needles everywhere. However, the high heat and humidity stayed. Usually with a storm, it breaks.

When a week or so later, second storm. We had strong sticky hot winds from the South. It rained mixed with sand. We get sand from the Sahara. It's all gritty. So, after the pine needles to clean up, I had sand on all the balconies, terrace and steps--yuckaroo. Still hot and humid--no letup. We'd get some rain about once a week after that. It's stayed hot and is still going strong. Up North lots of flooding and mudslides in the mountains. I thought of you. Connection.

Funny you should mention a castle. 36 years ago when my husband bought the beach house--which is 3 stories, white stucco with red tile roof, different levels, balconies and terrace, wrought iron railings and gate, a cousin of my husband's came to visit with his family. He told my husband "Wow, you bought her a castle!"
