Torrential rain every night this week (mind you I'm glad it's at night) - Tuesday night 3.4 inches in 3 hours and wind so strong that it blew over a dc with fruit in a protected area. Cayman Islands are having the same weather but when I look at the satellite images - nada!! And now it is pouring again - driving so hard that the spray reached me in the kitchen and I had to scream for the other half to do something. Quickly!! Last nights rain brought in a beautiful black tarantula about 7 inches across, but as I didn't want him walking over my feet in the night, I scooped him up in a plastic bowl and found a dry place outside for him. The wildlife here can be very much part of the family - snakes living in the garden walls, rats in the generator house, mice in the garage and tarantulas strolling down the hall - gals who scream at the sight of a worm have a hard time here!! And the birds!! All I can say is that I am so lucky.
