Bermuda Brr.rr.rr.!

The weather has been wild here over the past couple of days: a low temperature of 48 degrees which nearly broke the old record of 44 that had been established in February 1950. Parts of the island (Mid Ocean Club) even received a coating of hail, forcing golfers to make a hasty retreat indoors. The general manager at Mid Ocean Club reported that this was the first hail he had seen there in the 25 years he had been with the club. The wind has howled around our little cottage like the worst nor'easter. Fortunately, we do have heat in the form of air conditioners which can dehumidify, cool, or heat. Without those, it would be very chilly; these cement/limestone block buildings do hold the chill, as do the tile floors. Even our dogs were trying to get warm.

But, having said all that, the hibiscus bushes keep producing blossoms.
