I awoke at 5:30 and was just drifting back off to sleep when the terrible winds returned, rattling the air conditioner and making many other dreadful noises. I did manage to get another two hours or so of shuteye, unbelievably. So it’s true, sleep does come to the exhausted. 🙂

It was grey out when I finally did get up and both computers needed a charge, so I decided to put one in the truck. Well, opening the house door was a mistake and I found myself in the same situation as I did during the night from hell!

I was able to shut the screen door from inside, but just barely, so I didn’t have to worry about the cats getting loose, then I had to get the spare set of keys that has the other lock key on it and finally exit through the cab driver’s side door. It’s amazing how much less wind there was on that side! I managed to wrestle the house door closed and locked it for good measure. I’ll be using the cab doors today to get out.

Much as I adore this location, the winds are getting to me. I’m thinking of heading out Monday. 🙁
