March in Connecticut is interesting

After being back in Connecticut for less than a few days, we were hit with what only could be classified as a winter hurricane.

3-5 inches of rain, 75 mph wind gusts, trees down, power lines down, fences ripped apart.

This is what could be called the green season here, a bit more severe, but wet all the less.

The house shuddered when the wind gusted, the water seeped in the ocean facing windows and every small hole in the house!

The next trip to Panama will be a welcome respite from the "Climate Change" weather we are seeing in the northeast US.  Never before have we seen this much wind, rain and snow during a season.

Unfortunately, we had a few deaths due to trees hitting cars, power lines and houses.  If the forecast holds, we should be out of this by Tuesday.  The rest of the week is assessing damage and repairing what we can..

Boy we miss the cool breezes and warm days of Bouqete.  We even enjoy the Bajareque mist.  it makes the skin feel so good!!!!!!
