It's over and it never started...

The hurricane, Jimena, blew by us this afternoon without a big huff or puff. She tracked up the coast of the Baja about 200 miles from the coast, predicted to make landfall at Magdelena Bay and across the peninsula to Loreto tomorrow or Thursday. We had a good rain today, but it lasted only a short time. The winds were stronger than normal but nothing dangerous. I assume that school is back on tomorrow. At least things will look a little greener. The negative in all this I learned on Comcast.net's web page: the sewer system in San Jose, our town, backed up and flooded because of the rain...yes, my question exactly, what would have happened if the hurricane had hit here? I did notice a very bad smell earlier today. The city is currently building a huge bridge to nowhere (we call it Palin Bridge!) on the edge of town. We, of course, wonder why this is a priority and a sewage system is not. Just received a text message that school is cancelled again tomorrow for clean up. Gotta love these hurricanes!
