Hurricane Ian is such a dangerous hurricane! He is incredibly fierce; thank you for honoring him.

I feared for my relatives in Florida. So far as I know, they escaped without any appreciable damage.

Thank you, Michael. I think Ian will be long remembered, especially in Central Florida.

The wrath of nature is worrisome.

It sure is, especially if you live in a region prone to nature's fury.

I guess that this 'Blue-Gray' game preceded both the college football bowl named the same -- as well the Civil War.

I'm afraid so, Bill. My housekeeper's parent's home In Punta Gorda was hit with considerable damage. They were here in Kentucky, so they are going down to assess the situation on Monday. At least they have a motor home to live in.

Thanks for your read, Darlene. I'm not very good with haiku, but I had to try to write this one.
