Lightning Strike



We had lightning strike very close to the house Thursday night. It struck this tree and in the process took out the hot water heater, two cable boxes, internet connection, and a PC. The cable man came and replaced the boxes and restored the internet connection. We put in a new hot water heater this morning. The PC will not power up and so it was sent to the PC hospital.

Every dog's dream...to sit at the table.




Here are the two Blue Bell flavors in the freezer this week.

Lé chat est décédé

And then there were three...Toonces went to Kitty Heaven today. He made it to 18. The photo above was from Jan 2008 and the photo below was from this weekend. We have lost both our cats in a 12-month period. Both passed away from old age. Bubba passed away April 2008. He was 15-1/2.
This is a picture of Bubba from 2007.

Goodbye Basketball

LSU's basketball season ended yesterday. It was amusing to see the Duke fans cheering for LSU.
Spring college football practice has started. Preseason NFL football is only 4 months away.

Holly Beach

Last Saturday we drove down to Holly Beach. After Rita and Ike, they are still rebuilding. The Cajun Riviera extends from Holly Beach in Cameron Parish to Cypremort Point in Vermilion Parish. We also stopped and walked the Wetland Walkway in the Sabine National Wildlife Refuge. There were no gators out, just one duck. The nearby waterways were teeming with crabs.

We currently have Banana Pudding and Cherry Amaretto Cordial Blue Bell in the freezer.
