North Carolina.

The ground is all red. My friend tells me the earth here is full of clay, but since it keeps water out, the hurricanes are a problem, as the water doesn't drain and just stays there for weeks (it's close to the sea).

I ask her if they do things to help it drain faster, or if they just wait it out. They wait it out.

I tell her I would have a hard time living in a place where hurricanes happened every few years. She tells me "well, you know... there are tornadoes in the center, and earthquakes on the west coast... There isn't really anywhere you're completely safe".
