Big winds and waves at home, we’re safe and comfy visiting Lisbon. Thank heaven we have mall’s here!

Yesterday we felt the tremors of an earthquake which was reported 4.4 on the Richter. First time we've really felt one on our side of the island, nothing broken or bent here:) I am reminded that I was a conference at USGS when I announced my retirement to Terceira; one USGS scientist point out Terceira on a hugh releif map of the world..."just look for the joint of three tectonic plates." Welcome to the Azores:)

Many say my timing was never too good, got my new European duplicate of my favorite Beemer just before a trip to the states and then the onset of winter weather here on the island. Not as much riding as I like, but still getting in some island jaunts and preparing for next spring:)

Hard rain, beautiful ocean waves flashing in sunlight, green grass on the Serra do Cume, gorgeous rainbows, hard rain, strong wind gusts, bright sunlight...all in less than 30 minutes. Welcome to Terceira. It's good to be home!!!

Another great meal from Sofia; a special gong-away luncheon for our dear Canadian/Terceira friend Celia! Boa Viagem Dalring. See you in a few months:)

More wind! after two or three days of sun and warm temps, we're back to winter, hail, wind, rain. You know, wood stove weather. Except I had to bring in the wood downwind because stepping out from behind the house resulted in blasts of wind:) Who knows, may springtime weather soon?

I grew up mostly in Michigan, where the weather constantly changes. Here on Terceira, it not only changes quickly, but it is confused as much as I. For several days now (and projected for at least a week) the winds have gone up and down from 18 knots to 47 knots, and the sun breaks out to shine on beautiful green fields and brilliant flowers, then wind and rain becomes nearly horizontal; few minutes later, the rain stops, the winds howl, and the sun dries things. Then it starts the same cycle again. Lots of rainbows though:)

OK, maybe it isn't Paradise. Just got shaken by a 4.3 Richter quake on the west end of the island. Hmmmm

So maybe this is paradise...I awoke today to sun and the need to mow the lawn, then clouds came and hid even the Matriz da Praia where we got married yeaars ago. Then the sun came out, I prepared to mow, and rain and clouds hit again...each time I got ready to mow. Maybe it's divine intervention?
