Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

Easier to navigate that treacherous 95, which is always a parking lot.

Good morning beachy and (((HUGS))). Not as windy here today as it was yesterday.
Good morning dear ((HUGS))
Did you get any rain?
I believe all the wind is on it’s way here. We’re in for a stormy day/night.
What are you doing today?

Just a sprinkle of rain. The wind broke a couple of dead limbs out of a tree that I needed to cut down. I’ll go outside and pick them up later.
Good morning Meg and (((HUGS))). At least the wind died down since yesterday.
Good morning Meg ((HUGS))
WOW! Love that graphic.
Happy Tuesday.
That is so cool!! Thanks!
Wow,,I saw your tumbleweed picture! I saw how the wind was blowing the snow in W Texas on the weather channel..Glad your roof is secure!!
;o)
Thank you, beachy.
All is calm..
Good morning LUV and (((HUGS))). It was bad yesterday. News is reporting quite a number of people are still without power in Austin as of this morning.
Ours seems to have survived all right, but hubby said that quite a few shingles were off the church building roof. Ugh! That’ll be a pain to repair!...and he is probably the one that will have the “pleasure” of doing it.
They are out removing the carcasses of the turned over trucks this morning. Quite a strange day. Blizzard north of us dropped nearly 2 feet of snow...Amarillo. Hope you dodged this wind!
The reason for being later to the Canteen this morning is because our ISP, Pioneer Telephone Cooperative, Kingfisher Oklahoma has had some issues related to the blizzard which impacted parts of the Central plains yesterday. A number of communities lost power due to the stress brought on by the heavy snow and strong winds combined.
Pioneer Telephone has numerous sites which run on generators however, due to the blizzard their techs were unable to reach those generators to refuel them. As a result, power was lost and some services were interrupted in some places, including Internet.
Here in Comanche OK, we never got below freezing. We had some light rain and that was about it. However, some place around our area did lose power due to winds.
In any event, things have calmed down, The storm has passed and our Internet is back on.
How's it going for everybody this morning?
Good morning! (((hugs))) It was quite a day! We had a short outage here, but I read of others that were worse...trees fallen on power lines, etc. Signs down, roofs blown off, a billboard sign torn nearly off the frame, blowing in the wind...the sand was NASTY! Ugh! I didn’t see that many tumbleweeds except piled up against fences along the highway.
Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))
Glad the weather wasn’t too bad for you...and that you got some rain! We got a bit of blowing snow, but nothing stuck and it wasn’t enough to even wet the sidewalks. I know that it was brutal north of us, from Lubbock to Amarillo.
Haven’t heard from my kids in OKC...whether they had lots of bad weather or not.
I haven’t been away from the house, but have to go to the dentist later today. I will probably see some damage on the way.
