Much Ado About Nothing...really. I was very concerned about the imminent tropical storm that was headed our way. All day I kept a wary eye on the weather radar and had spent a couple of hours lowering the hurricane shutters at work. While it was not predicted to hit us directly, I fully expected hours of drench rains and extreme winds. Well the wind did pick up, but not enough to topple a trash can. And it did rain, but was only heavy in isolated spots. At one location in the town area, there was a long puddle about 6-8" of deep water. We went to the grocery store and in usual Michigan-esque pre-storm fashion expected to see gobs of people buying supplies to get them through the storm. Not so. The grocery store was no busier than usual. At work not one local person even brought up the impending disaster. When we got home, the wind was calm, there was no rain and we had dinner out on the veranda. Went swimming in the pool and read the news on the deck. Tropical Storm Ch
