Today at school we had an earthquake drill. Duck, cover, and count before evacuating. There are also fire drills. In Ecuador, we had earthquake, fire, and volcano drills. Procedures were a bit different for each one.
Tomorrow morning I plan to cut bouquets of roses and dahlias and zinnias. Our temperatures are not expected to freeze just now, but rain can damage blossoms, and I'd just as soon enjoy them indoors.
Raindrops on dahlias...picture perfect! We have yet to have rain, but we are ready.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a principal we had fire and earthquake drills. When I was a kid we had the air raid drills, not that they would have save us from a direct or near hit living near Los Angeles. During a staff meeting when local police were presenting about drug awareness there was a small earthquake. The whole staff ducked under the desks and the cops just stood there up front. We all thought it was very telling about their seriousness. - Margy
