Or so they say. So so say say. I'm not convinced. I do know that it is very humid, and I've made preparations. Just in case. And I don't live in a flood zone.
I've begun the long, slow, process of clearing the land. I had a jungle experiment. But it was all too much. I'm too old for that. Next year I'll have to buy some hefty duty brush cutting stuff, so that it won't come back and run rampant again. If I lived farther out, among the Texicans and bikers and meth labs, I would not care. But I've got one foot in "civilization", that profound joke, and the other in the hinterlands. You need both feet in the boonies to do what I did and feel comfortable.
