Coffee is ready, on my second cup. It’s white with fog outside and going to be sunny and hot. I’m good with that!

I put on my Atwoods cap and head mosquito net to do chores this evening. Gnats were lighting ob the net but couldn’t get in. Score! And yes, the dogs barked their heads off at Monster Mom.

Yes it was! Chambray blue color. Pink is not my color!

I cared for the animals this morning and changed clothes. @ninnymary i wore my “nice” overalls! I drove the mule to the paved road, then to the church where I parked my car. The pond on my road is deeper and wallowed out bigger, water up to the floorboard of the mule. I went to Atwood’s grand...

That sounds like a lovely day!

Coffee is ready. On my second cup. Then I shall go mud doggin’ in my rubber boots that have holes in them, blue jeans, long sleeved shirt to keep gnats off. Poor sheep. They have really had it since January. I’ll finish my coffee and go dump water out of all the feed tubs and give them alfalfa...

The winds even blew down electrical transmission towers, they are heaps of twisted metal. The Mayor is telling people to stay home. Downtown skyscrapers had those shiny glass plates blown out. Glass litters the streets, damage everywhere. It looks like a war zone. Not a hurricane, no...

Houston news is still following tornado warning. It is going through downtown Houston. They are calling it a Destructive Thunderstorm, equal to a catagory 1 hurricanes with 80-100 mile an hour winds. 340,000 without power in Houston-so far.

It started storming around 1:30. I fed all the animals early and barely finished before the rain dumped. Lightening struck the transformer on the pole by the house at 2:50. Power went out, I called it in. Power company showed up, 2 guys in raincoats, but still wet. I have power now. Only 2...

North Alabama is pretty country.

Yesterday was sunny, today is sunny, tomorrow the deluge. Rain Thursday and Friday. 3-5” of rain, over the watershed of the Trinity River and the San Jancinto River. I hope the areas that flooded don’t get hit again. My sister has decided to stay in her house while the FEMA buyout drags on...

Welcome from East Texas! What part of Alabama are you in?

I’ve grown Maestro peas before, good producers. I’d go for a T-post at each end and run string .
