No, the storm didn’t miss us. It swept through the campground with a vengeance leaving a trail of destruction. We had been unaware of the intensity of the storm since Doug & Mia have lined all their windows with reflectix. We didn’t see the lightning nor hear the thunder but were aware only of the sound of the rain on the T@B roof. After the storm had passed we made our way back home, checked our tents and lines, assured that all was well we climbed into bed. Just before sleep we checked Facebook to discover that several of our fellow campers had sustained damage. A walk around in the morning revealed several flattened canopies and twisted frames as well as damage to the electric system in one T@B. The whole mood was lifted though by the delicious breakfast prepared by Rich & Susan!
Imperial War Museum
London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.
