Happy Sunday Everyone!
I am here, having survived mostly unscathed by Hurricane Leslie. I however cannot say much for this Corvette...
Lord Tunderin' Salt Water Rabbits!
But seriously, it's sad to look at really isn't it...? The poor owner of this vehicle was apparently building the very shed that destroyed it to keep the car safe from the elements. What a cruel twist of fate :( I suppose 137km winds can do this sort of thing can't they. But besides a few blown off roofs, downed trees and loss of power for most of the day, Newfoundland came away from this storm pretty good. No loss of life, no real flooding, infrastructure in general held up pretty well, etc. Nothing like Igor so I'm told. God knows it could have been much worse if experience has taught us anything. So I'm happy to be carrying on my normal daily life, my only worry being how to navigate some big intersections whose traffic lights are still on the fritz.
I got a tinsy bit of stitching in on Tuesday seeing as Leslie gave us the day off work.
Not much difference from last time is it?
Unfortunately with no power (with really dark skies outside) and 36ct dark colour linen, stitching is beyond difficult. So what did I do while waiting out the storm. Made pancakes with the Coleman stove of course.... and sit and wait. Yup... no Wizard of Oz... OH WELL.
Until next time darlings!

The picture of the car would make my husband cry. Glad no one was injured. Am loving your stitched piece. I didn't get that one and it makes me wondering why when I look at yours!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you survived it safe and sound. We had friends who had just come back from Halifax. They were glad for the timing, for sure.
ReplyDeleteNo damage here either, just the power gone for half a day. Saw on the news tonight the picture of the corvette made it around the world.
ReplyDeleteStitching looks great.
Good to hear you are okay. Too bad the corvette owner had a tree fall on a beautiful car :( Your LK is looking great!
