The first major storm of the season hit today. What is odd is that there is no snow. The storm has hurricane force winds and a lot of rain. If it was cold, we we would be buried in snow. The lunar cycle is not in our town's favor. The tide are exceptionally high, so flooding is inevitable. The pictures I have seen are unreal. I have never seen the water so high, in all my years living in this town. We are talking 4 decades worth of calling Duxbury home.
Despite it all, the girls are trying to rally for Demi's birthday. Two of the out of town guests can't make it. One was flying. The next flight would be Monday. The trip to Cape Cod is canceled. Now the local girls are just trying to get out to dinner. Seems like a bad idea, but these grown a** women can make their own decisions. Little does my sister in-law know but my brother is grabbing his chainsaw, just so she can drive into the neighborhood and come home. A large tree is blocking their street.
Dinner is finally called. We lost power just around 5 pm. Demi is still trying to accomplish something, so she went for take out. She struck out at 4 restaurants, since their power is flickering and no longer doing take out. She grabbed Wendy's for Coco. I am glad she is finally home, safe and sound. We can all settle in for a movie. The generator is running, so it will have to be a DVD. Which is just fine.
