Hurricane???

Well, Gustav came to visit Louisiana and Texas these past few days and fortunatly for us he was very worn out by the time he reached us. We were ready for his visit (we had the flashlights and snacks), but our most unwelcomed guest decided to spend most of his energy blowing around in the gulf, so we didn't get to see him in his full glory (and we are not too distrought about it either).
To make sure this experience (of having Gustav come to visit) was not a complete flop, we took some pictures to try to make it look like it was a more exciting experience then it really was...

OH NO! Isaac is blowing away in the wind!

It's a good thing we had that little plant to hang onto, otherwise we all might have blown away in the wind. We were pretty much hanging on for dear life when this picture was taken. (the flash wasn't working properly on the camera and that's why the picture is really dark)

This is what it looks like when the wind is threatening to blow you away. (very convincing, right?)

Gustav and me are buddies... he didn't want to blow me away.

I bet that generator sure came in handy with Gustav beating down your door.

It's amazing how still those pictures are, what with the photographer being blown away. They are very convincing. we are glad you are all safe.

Wow the adventures never end at your house. Better put those snacks to good use and buy some more for the next storm to come around.
