Well the tornado got us ---

Yep, a tornado hit us on Saturday morning around 10 AM and did extensive damage to our cabin over in Arkansas.  It put a tree down on one corner of the place and blew out one of my skylights.  I reckon we got off lucky, our next door neighbors place took a direct hit and was totaly destroyed.  The hole in the roof has been covered with a tarp, so I guess that is all we can do for it for the next few weeks, then we will be going up for a week or so to fix what we can before winter sets in.  Such is life, at least none of our folks got hurt, although there were 2 people drowned upriver from us and another 2 people are still missing.  The river flooded and floated off a bunch of cabins  and camper trailors.  We built our place on high ground so didn't have to worry about the flood.

Yep, the weather down this-a-way is just gorgous.  It is running about 85 to 88ºF(29 to 31ºC) and at night it is around 62 to 65ºF (17 to 18ºC).  It is just great.  Tomorrow (Thursday 7 Sept.) I will plant our fall garden so we will have fresh peas and greens till spring planting time comes around.
I hope yall are having weather as good as ours, but we could use some rain.
