Meanderings in the Wake of a Storm

Didja hear about the guy who found some valuable Mexican artifacts in the 'trash' he gleaned from an estate some years ago? Their estimated value: more than $15,000.

And the five-legged puppy? What a cutie. Plenty more strange animal photos in this gallery, mostly multiple-legged types.

We are still here, which is a tad amazing, considering the thunderstorm that roared through here late last night. The trees were lashing about like a tropical storm, the rain falling in sheets, and we had tornado warnings like crazy. (See a creepy photo here. Thankfully, this tornado went down east of us, and no damage was done.) Our oldest dog, Buck, hates any kind of storm, and he nearly had a heart attack trying to squeeze between us for protection. (Why that would save him, I have no idea.)

At any rate, we're fine...and the house roof, that we put so much sweat and effort into last fall?

Not one leak.
