I’m 1/4 mile from the city skyline and can’t see it. Rain is coming down sideways, pelting our windows. I can’t see more than 100 feet away, if that far. Zoe’s barking at the thunder every time it hits, and we’re right under it. Can’t wait for Gustav this weekend.
Shiner is OK as his mom is coming home right now, he’s the Katrina rescue next door who hates thunder.
Big one a few seconds ago, right above us. Yes we both have a UPS which gives us 15 min. of battery power to power down computers. Girls, you may want to look at geeks in a more positive light. My honey did a demo for us last evening testing batteries in a $1 flashlight I keep next to the bed for hurricanes et al. All to prove that one of four batteries I just used to power my cordless keyboard was bad.
He can change a tire, too, but I’m not trading him in right now. You’ll have to find your own.
Have a great Labor Day weekend! Now I need to look up that beer batter recipe. The sun is coming out. They always say if you don’t like the weather in TX just wait ten minutes. Dee

Ah yes, lovely hurricane season! Gotta love those geeky husbands in these situations! Best of luck to you! We just got out of our mess!
For fried green tomatoes, do I just use cornmeal with salt and pepper or do I really need a batter?
Come on, I’m from el norte.
How did the ole’ hurricane pan out for you?
Still here. A little rain, a little wind. Since we got very little we’re hoping family farms NE of Dallas got some rain as they really need it. Thanks!
