Hey

We made it through the night okay. Our electricity stayed on. The tornado siren went off a couple times but if there were tornadoes they went somewhere else. We are still having lots of wind and a little rain.

Mom did wake up this morning and looked out the window and saw this


Yes, that is a tree on dad's truck. The housing people came and cut it up and got it off the truck.
Mom checked it out and there are no dents and some smudge marks but they go away when she wipes them off. So we think we got really lucky on that one.
We hope all our friends are okay.

  14. Whoa that was one lucky truck! We are getting windy waaaaayyyyy over here in Paducah from Ike. We can't IMAGINE what it was like on the coast.

  15. Hey Peanut and Flash. Whenever we hear about the hurricanes on the news, we think of you. Thank goodness none of you was hurt and there was no bad property damage. We're sorry for the tree, though. To be lifted by its roots like that..wow. That must have been scary winds for you to listen to.

    We're getting some awful weather in a few days when the last gasp of Ike winds northward to Canada. Now we're hoping that everyone near Galveston and Houston are ok.

    Hugs to your family.

  19. Just checking in to see if you are okay, and I am glad to see you are. Although the tree and car might disagree! We did fine here in Dallas, but our friends in Galveston unfortunately didn't. We're gonna have some company for a while!

  24. Hey, man we are glad your dad's truck is okay. But we are really glad your family is okay! We made it through Ike without any problem and we even still have power ... of course, we are 150 miles from the coast. Most of our family is still in Houston and they don't have any power and they had trees come down too. Boy, Ike just caused all kinds of trouble!

    if you click on get this widget at the bottom it just takes you to the site doesn't it? if you click on the image at the top, the dashboard one, it downloads the widget. But I don't know if it works for non-Mac users. You would have to ask Greg.

  33. I'm glad you guys are all okay and that your dad's truck didn't get damaged. I was trying to watch for you on the weather maps, but I got confused and Mom was no help so I kept my paws crossed you weren't in the blue area.

  38. We're so glad no one was hurt -- and better the truck than your roof, right?

    What a mess. We've been reading all about the poor people on Galveston Island.

    Having been through hurricanes, Mom knows how awful it is to wake up to find your world upside down -- or gone!!

    It seems as though they took better care of pets this time though.

    Woofs,

    Jake and Just Harry

  39. Hi,

    That was definitely a close call. It’s interesting how Dad’s truck was spared though, even though the tree fell directly on top of it. Because, there doesn’t appear to actually be any damage to the truck.

    Surely Dad’ll be happy about that. Yes, after Ike, we had a couple of tornadoes touch down and cause damage. Then, we also had some flooding, and unfortunately that’s when the most people seem to perish.

    Anyway, thanks for sharing your photos and experience.

  40. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
