Escaping the weather ... again

Lately, when it has came to the weather, it seems we have been pushing our luck. Some of my neighbors in our small community were a little unlucky after the winds from hurricane Ike made it's way through southern Indiana.

Marvin and DeEtta Chasteen:



Our electricity was out for several hours on Sunday. I seen several lines down throughout Town and several taken down from the fallen tree branches. The only stoplight in Town was out.

Brian and Holly Sweany, who are good friends of mine, who live on County Road 1000 East, also had some damage to their fence around their pool:

Others close to us haven't been so lucky. We should, as always, count our blessings.
