The calm before the storm

Living in Florida means not worrying about getting a good parking place when I’m shopping. In fact, the weather is so beautiful in Florida this time of year that I purposefully park far away. It allows the ol’ pedometer a chance to click a few extra times as I work off the eggnog consumed over the holidays and also allows me to enjoy a little sun on my face and the sight of palm trees swaying in the breeze. But we all know the weather in Florida isn’t always so pleasant. Hurricanes agree with all those Disney tourists that Florida is a favorite place to visit. The most recent one in our area, Wilma, came from the southwest with a vengeance. It slammed us – uprooting trees, knocking down power lines, sending roof tiles as projectile missiles through the air. Then it cleared. And the weather was sunny and calm. And for a short amount of time, all was well. But it was only the eye of the storm – with even more damaging hurricane winds churning behind it.
