Hurricane Rita

Pugitta has informed me that it's time for yet another check-up on the hurricane situation! Let's GO!!

There's Paul... playing yet another video game. This is what happens when you run out of Beef Jerky playing poker.

Still no progress on our pre-flood car sale. Looks like it's another non-profit day for us!

The clouds are coming in, and growing a bit darker. The wind is also picking up a tad. We're now seeing more and more "gusts" of wind. Nothing big by Missouri standards, but certainly more air movement than stale ol' Houston typically sees.

Yes... all the ourdoor lawn furniture is gone.

Here is a shot of the skies looking north-east (from the back yard).

Mr. Fuggs says he's done with his check-up and is ready for another hearty portion of Beef Jerky treats! I'm with YOU, Mr. Fuggs.

HAHAAAA!! Caught Shane red handed!! Trying to get to the jerky before the rest of us get our share, eh? Well... don't tell Shane this, but Paul and I have spoken in secret, and if it comes down to a worst case senerio and we're trapped, we're eating Shane first.

OH CRAP!!! All this seriousness about the hurricane and I forgot the most important event of the day....

YES YES YES YES YES!!! I'm a WINNER!!! I am now one point closer to winning a prise!! What a great day this has turned out to be!

MOVIE -- Here is what is now a common sample of the wind gusts we are experiencing.

MOVIE -- Here is a clip of Pugitta giving her approval of the outdoor inspection. Mr. Fuggs quickly joins in on the approval parade, but once he sniffs her breath he's "outta there."
