Bassler and Kayleen's wedding. The clean up nice enough.

The crab has 'em.

Down in Northern Neck last weekend.

Girl Scout Camp

1.5 weeks ago I slept through an inch or so of rain in this tent while the girls were forced to take cover in the lodge. Ahh, the memories...

Have I mentioned I love our tractor?

Actually, it's kind of worn out, but it still gets the job done.

Cool sky

Disregard the power pole--couldn't get a good shot without it.

Health food

Flood stage

I didn't get any pictures where it went over the road, but it was impressive.

Prepping for the next natural disaster

This round ends with 2-1/2 gallons of tomatoes and 1-1/2 gallons of spaghetti sauce.

Crap -- Exploding tomato jars!

Don't rush pressure canning! Especially the cool down phase.

No power

Our own tree is the culprit. Estimate is 8pm Monday.

I've been neglecting the garden

Now it looks like I'll spend this hurricane canning tomatoes by generator.

Bettica doing emergency work.

You know, before the hurricane hits.
