Just popping in my head to say "Hello" and to make sure that Debadoo and Kenna didn't disappear amidst all the rainfall that they had. Yes, you guys passed it on to us over here.
I was busier than a one legged man in an ... kicking contest out here until yesterday. All of that came to an abrupt halt once the storming started yesterday afternoon. Weather events can seem a little dramatic out here since there is basically nothing to stop the wind and being almost on top of the Gulf of Mexico. Before I came to work yesterday, I was up on the levee checking out the surf, and it was mad as hell. Not too long after that, the rain starting coming down. The wind was kicking even before the rain started. I went to supper last night dressed in full rain suit.
It stormed all night long last night. We lost power multiple times. We lost Internet and Cable TV. (Welcome to Grand Isle) Couldn't get diddly done except packing parts without Internet. Instead, I watched weather last night... it was pretty fascinating. Those helicopters tied down on the flight line were rocking. We doggone near paddled back to the apartments last night. We couldn't get a parts truck last night either as Hwy 1 was closed at the locks due to water being over the road.
Right now we are basically cut off from the rest of civilization. They closed Hwy 1 at the locks after 5 due to high tide and being impassable with water. All I can say is that water better go somewhere before Wednesday and time for me to come home.
Glad everybody is safe and sound. Hugs to those of you are are not feeling well. Hugs to everybody just because I can!
He's the poop stirrer around here, and he LOVES it!! The other guy is married. My boss is a confirmed bachelor, at least that's what he says. He's always talking about how he wants a little Asian girl anyway. Naw, these guys are like my extended family. Anything more??? Naw.........I think we'd all be sick.
