Our first night in the North Carolina cabin, there was a thunderstorm. After we put the kids to bed, Eric and I went out on the deck with Jerry and Del. Zach and Ava were sharing a bedroom, and about 15 minutes after they'd gone to bed, we heard a little knock at the deck door and Zachary came out.
He said that he and Ava were scared of the thunder and lightning. "Ava and I were talking, and we decided that North Carolina is not safe. And I was also wondering, can lightning defeat a cabin?"
Eric went in and gave the kids a lesson on lightning rods and fire retardant wood, and reassured them that in the list of dangerous states North Carolina ranks fairly low.
