We survived Gustav ...





We survived the hurricane last week and did not even lose power. So many people around us lost power, especially the people in the southern part of the state. There were small towns around us that flooded very badly, many that had never flooded before. Las Tuesday the girls asked if they could go outside and play in the rain and in the very full ditch and I told them they could. We always used to play in the rain when we were kids, as long as there wasn't lightening. Outside our house there were some pretty good ditches, almost neck deep sitting flat on the bottom. We would put play boats in the ditch and have boat races. Well, the girls didn't do all that, but they did have fun. The little boy next door came over in his rain poncho and they splashed around for a few minutes. I got a few pictures.


Till later,
