it's raining here pretty good, wasn't supposed to get here for another day.
just talked to a friend who lives in st. francisville la. he has two holes in his roof now, with five trees down in the backyard. damn squirrels!
hope everyone in the area down there comes thru all this ok. still baffled that some choose to stay. and in doing so, which i doubt they care, they endanger the lives of those who then have to rescue them.

Well, Thank Goodness it weakend before hitting where it did..It really could have been so much worse. I am here in the Beaumont area (the ugly city ) and we have'nt even had any of the rains yet. The wind has picked up some, but not like we had feared a few days ago.
They did issue a mandatory evacuation here yesterday, but I chose to wait until all the traffic died down, then saw that I was'nt going to have to leave after all
