A Derecho came a calling

You learn something every day, so they say. Today I learned that the ferocious storm that came through last night with 80 mph winds was called a derecho. All I know is that it looked like a tropical storm, produced massive bangs of thunder and lightening and scared us half to death.

We are all ok but had no electric for the last 24 hours. It's amazing how much you miss your washer, dishwasher, fridge and AC unit. I can say with 100% confidence that I could never live like the Amish!

To escape the heat today we went to the pool  and we are all going to the Columbus Crew soccer game tonight, if they have their electric back on in the stadium by kick-off!
