Barn Charm

This is one of the Amish communities near us, and you can see on some of the house roofs they have installed solar panels. They use these to charge batteries.
We made it through the hurricane fairly well. The creek behind our home is very high, but we have little water in the basement. All the schools are closed in the area, and plenty of power out too.
Have a great day.

Great shot Becky!
I love all the houses and buildings and the barn with two silos - what a idyllic scene.
