After Glenda

nice and clear (of water lilies)

bent over after 130-160 kilometers per hour wind

This tree fell during the storm.
After only 4 hours officials from the barangay (village)
have almost cleared what remained of the tree.

The light green seen in the background is rice.

We survived Typhoon Glenda.  Meralco Electric Company shut down power for 11 hours, not due to damage, but just to be on the safe side.  We also always had water, unlike other areas.  The following day we were without electricity for 6 hours.  Other parts of the Luzon area weren't as lucky.  I heard from relatives about 3 hours from Pililla that they had been without electricity and water for 3 days.
