Traveling from Tucson [is this YOUR airbase --Davis Monthan?] to Phoenix, we had one so thick we had to pull off the side of the road 'til it went over us. Spooky.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Well, where I live we're now 'downgraded' to tropical storm warning. Which is great news from our vantage point, but where our son lives it's another story...Houston is still in line for the 'big hit' later tonight or early Saturday morning. And we still have power. I've been trying to get as much work done around the house just in case water or power goes out before this storm hits land...I'm done. All I can do that is humanly possible. We've shuttered the windows up and just wait for the worst to pass us.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, for your thoughts and prayers.Hootin Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811326085498312568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-77219163286280888082008-09-12T16:53:00.000-05:002008-09-12T16:53:00.000-05:00Wow, that's crazy!

It was when we were driving through Kansas back in 1954. <BR/>We didn't get as much dust in our part of town last night, but when I saw that wall of dust on TV coming up from the airport last night I was concerned about both of my kids who would be driving home about that time. One of them works near the airport. I was glad when I knew they were both home safely. In California we occasionally had fog that turned the visibility to zero. Here it's dust. I'm just glad we don't have hurricanes.Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533075034458645148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-73930806067635234962008-09-12T11:21:00.000-05:002008-09-12T11:21:00.000-05:00Never been in one, and don't want to be.I can see ...Never been in one, and don't want to be.<BR/><BR/>I can see why your kids were impressed, but no thank you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06833388514253606318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-84490043137734694242008-09-12T10:39:00.000-05:002008-09-12T10:39:00.000-05:00Wow.
