Clouds of the hurricane began arriving
yesterday.. today their rains arrives, having traveled all the way
through Louisiana into Arkansas.. lovely and amazing, the power...
loud, the noises seem to be carrying for forever, the sound of metal
bending, and yet it is so gentle here, the rain that one knows it
is just the sound of noises being carried in the wind... limbs keep
falling out of my tree, as it shakes the limbs that are dead down...

last night as I lay in bed trembling
at the power of the hurricane, the deep roar that comes with the
wind, the cracking the tree limbs... It is like there is this moment
when it sounds like there is a thunder being up there walking
around, then I realize it is the sound of a tree.. it is the
crackling sound of a tree being pulled from the ground carried in
the wind for some 200 miles, passing over up above it carries the
sound of a thunder one, but without the lightning and the rest of
the effects... I thought how much fun we would be having if we had a
pajama party in this.... you know the kind where, flashlight
in hand, heads under the blanket, listening to the scary sounds we
discuss what we think that spooky sound goes to..

A TRAILER LIKE GRANDPA HUNTS, AND THEY CAMP RIGHT THERE WHERE THE
TREE FELL..... GOOD THING THEY WEREN'T THERE THAT NIGHT.
haha, OKAY SO THE TREE BEING UPROOTED
AND FALLING DOWN WASN'T THE SOUND BEING CARRIED UPON THE WIND FOR
200 MILES.. BUT RATHER THE SOUND OF THE TREE BEING UPROOTED

HAD A PAJAMA PARTY THAT NIGHT....
THAT WIND WAS A LITTLE SCARY....

HURRICANE FOR A BIT..... BUT WOW WHAT A PICTURE... AND WHAT A

COMMENT
Oh and the thing was... there
were 2 trees standing together that when we looked at them we saw
them as husband and wife. Tonya called the wife Nefertiti..
and husband she called Pharaoh... It was Nefertiti who was laid
out on the ground.. so it was kind of sad because I was wondering
how Pharaoh was going to respond now that his wife was laid out on
the ground.
