Typhoon Glenda

Typhoon Glenda news from a friend in Manila
 
Hi, Bob! 
I hope you are well when you get this email. Typhoon Glenda just left the Philippines yesterday (July 15) but left a trail of destruction again. Not much rain, thank you, but a lot of destroyed homes,  and uprooted trees and worse, we don't have electricity. My battery pack has a little power left so I can still text.
 
Hi,
Sorry to hear about Typhoon Glenda.  I will have to check the Philippine newspapers.  I hope you have electricity again soon.  I can't believe how lucky I was when I was teaching there (June through October, 1998) and there were no typhoons except for what the newspapers called a "half typhoon."  That was quite enough for me.
