In the wee small hours of this morning a band of thunderstorms rolled through southwestern Ohio interrupting our sleep for about an hour and a half. Although according to the Weather app the worst of it hit west of us, we still heard lots of thunder boomers and heavy rain on the roof. Only “damage” was that one stake pulled out leaving part of the awning flapping in the breeze. Steve went out into the storm to secure the line to a nearby tree then reset the stake this morning. All in all we weathered the storm quite well.
Burgh House Hampstead
Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
Very glad to know your preparations paid off. I hear stories of people not so fortunate. I will need to set-up my little tent in backyard for the next severe storm to see how it fares.
