Last week California had a record-breaking storm. Buckets of rain, and amazingly, 61-mile-an-hour winds. 70 is a hurricane, so you can imagine tree limbs, roof tiles, and even garbage cans blowing sideways.
It sounded like a freight train and caused several power outages. At one point I looked out at the front street and there, crumpled up on our lawn, was a shark!
Okay, a pool
shark.
Okay, not that kind of pool shark. An inflatable one for a swimming pool.
Although it would have been cool if various sea creatures had blown into the neighborhood, all the way from the coast.
I ran back to grab my phone and take a picture. But in the few seconds it took, the shark had blown away, probably to San Francisco.
Maybe those are
the real lyrics to the song! I left my shark…. In San Francisco…
We survived the
onslaught with only some fence damage, but somewhere a family is missing its pool
floatie.
Weather-- or sharp teeth-- keeping you inside? That’s a perfect time to watch my Youtube Mom life hacks!
