The kids came for a visit. Great fun. The TV blares “take shelter”. Where? I run to the end of the drive way, grab a tire iron from the truck, and lever up the manhole cover. The womenfolk chase the kids down the hole. I shuttle blankets, water bottle, and some food down to them. What’s next? The family treasure chest and some protection. I pull the truck tail over the open hole and wiggle down my self. Everyone’s scared; me included. Who knows what’s next. At least we weren’t out in the open. Not too bad for being totally unprepared?
