Felt Like an Ant

Hurricane Richard began with rain Sunday afternoon/evening and then pounded the Belmopan area from about 8pm til midnight (give or take). It was during that time that I felt like an ant and was at the mercy of the hurricane. There was nothing that I could do as I watched the trees sway under the strong winds and the rain pour all around.

During the hurricane, I watched in slow motion as our mango tree (that you could just about fit your arms around) fell on our neighbors house (see picture). Thankfully they stayed elsewhere, but it did significant damage to the peak of the house and has exposed one of the rooms to the elements.

Thankfully we had some people from church with a chainsaw cut it all up so that our neighbors can begin the process of rebuilding what was damaged.

There were no deaths reported from the hurricane & we praise God for that!

Thank YOU God for protecting us!
