We are enjoying a long weekend in the mountains far away from the hurricane. The power is back on at home, but internet isn't up quite yet. There was no damage to our place which is on the east coast, well away from where Milton entered the state. That gave him plenty of time to simmer down a bit.
Apples are ripe here and the kids picked a few which need to be peeled and turned into some apple pie filling and applesauce. I keep thinking that we should try some apple cider, but that needs a machine to do on a large scale. Our attempts at homemade wine have been hit or miss so far, but we will keep trying until something works.
The cat has been hanging out on a quilt next to a window as cats love to do. There are birds and squirrels to spy upon. I am also enjoying some time relaxing, though there is a fallen tree just calling my name that is ready to turned into some firewood.

Those look like yummy apples! I made applesauce from our apples last weekend - so tasty. Have a great weekend, Angela!
Sounds like you've had a relaxing few days escape from hurricane country.
So glad to hear you are safe up at the cabin and no damage to your place on the beach. Enjoy those apples and that cat looks oh so comfy looking out the window. Bummer on the hexagons. I have a couple of small cross stitch projects in the console of the car =).
Glad to know you're safe away from the storm. Enjoy the apples!
So glad you are safe! My Florida family members are too. Some damage , trees and such and a roof lost on a cottage near Homosassa. But no one injured! That’s the blessing!
Sound like a perfectly wonderful way to spend the weekend. The apples look delicious!
So glad to hear that you all were out of harm's way when Milton blew through Florida and that your area wasn't hit by a tornado, Angela. Enjoy the rest of your mountain visit and safe trip home!
