Preparing for the Storm

We are preparing for the BIG STORM here! Actually, in New England, we’re not expecting it to be too much…a little rain and some wind. But preparations are prudent just the same!

The deck looks kind of sad and lonely. All the chairs, the table, and the umbrella were put away today. That needed to happen for winter anyway, but the BIG STORM just forced us to do it a bit earlier than planned.

The oil lamps, my antique store purchase from a month or so ago, have new wicking and are filled with lamp oil now.

A trip to town was made to get gas for the generator. Got chocolate too! All set!
