Should have been cat-head biscuts, sorry, but my obsesive, compulsive jack russel terrorist was want me to play ball. I swear she will wear you out throwing the ball. She takes it to bed with her, puts it in her water bowl when she drinks, food bowl when she eats. I was throwing the ball for her in the yard the other day and i swear she was launching torpedos while running after the ball. Nothing slows here down playing ball, not even the need to take a crap!!!

I caught one that weighed 32 pounds. I think it was someone's pet that had escaped or been released. Coons down here on the gulf coast, do not accumulate the fat like their northern brothers, simply because it doesn't get so cold.

We evacuated to Center (with 15 horses and a travel trailer). Came back in before day light Tuesday morning. First thing I did was try to tear the A/C off the top of my Travel trailer and Horse Trailer. Power lines down everywhere. 2 of my neighbors had snuck in around the Sheriff Dept road blocks, the day before, and had taken their tractors and chain saws and cleared our road. I had evacuated with chain saws and generators, and came back with fairly full tanks of fuel plus about 80 gallons of gasoline. Once we got home, we were fine. Had generators to run the R/V and water well. Plenty of propane. Lost half the roof off my horse barn, destroyed another barn, and tried to take the roof off the 40 X 60 metal building I was putting up, but the end trusses held it on. Ruined my central air outside unit, and the shingles on my house. The thing that happened to me, that didn't happen to many, was the buffeting of the wind against the brick on my house, bent and broke the brick ties. You could walk up and rock the brick against the house. I had the whole house rebricked. Windows were boarded, so no problem there. I had a couple of squares of shingles in my barn, and I was able to patch my roof until a roofer could re-roof. Lost some trees, and things. I never could figure out why there was such a rotten smell to the standing water, it's not like we never have any standing water! There were a couple of tropical birds, with broke wings, along our road - came with the storm, from Africa, I guess. The Navy destroyer at the port said we had 130mph sustained winds, and the wind meter pegged out numerous times. It pegs out at 180mph. They said we had at least 120 tornadoes that never touched ground, and that was what broke all the pine trees off, about 30 foot up. Anyway, city people were in a bind, but we were fine. Somehow though, I think Rita was responsible for the extremely rare lung disease that my daughter came up with after the first of the year, I just don't know how. But there are just almost no one, with their own lungs, that has what she had. She has had a double lung transplant now though. Anyway, we did better than a lot, I guess. How about you?
