Over the past 2 days we have had constant rain and cloud cover here. Today we did not get as much rain but it was a gloomy day. Yesterday at 5 pm the news said places south of us had gotten 6 inches of rain. I do not know exactly what we got because no news agency ever delivers news about our area, I guess it is because we are in the no mans zone, 2 hours from Columbia, 2 hours from St. Louis, 2 hours from Kansas City, and an hour and a half from Springfield so no one really claims our area.
When massive tornadoes are in the Springfield area all we see are tornado broadcasts blocking the TV shows but as soon as it gets 20 miles from us everyone goes back to their regular programs and we all run frantically around not knowing what is going on. Ok maybe not but it is annoying because I could have watch that hour of 24 that was blocked because I was not in danger yet. (I really do not watch 24 but I could not think of any other intense tv show to put there besides Word World :o)
Anyway, the hurricane hit Missouri with some strong force below is a picture of the nice big beautiful tree that used to be across the street from us. In fact this tree was such a healthy tree that it would stay green months after every other tree dropped their leaves (I personally think it is tapped into the sewer line that runs about 7 feet away from it).
Maybe we will get some of that disaster relief money that FEMA so kindly hands out. :o) I got 2 starving boys and a 9 month pregnant woman to take care of.
Anyway I have spent forever trying to figure out how to get the picture of the video camera and cannot figure it out so I will add it later on.
