Windy weather on my porch...

The barometric pressure is the lowest it has been in 70 years!!! Who knew that could cause extreme wind?? Trees are down and we have lost some shingles from our old house but this house is sturdy...

I am so sad on my porch...

My old friends 19 year old grandson and her daughter's only child was killed on Saturday...I just can't  imagine how that feels. The family is inconsolable. I have such a tenuous hold on faith anyway and this kind of horrific event chips away. How awful and random is our universe...

They did it...while I sat on the porch...

Chi-chi-chi-le-le-le  Chile!!!! Wow, the Chilean miners under ground for 69 days have been rescued. It is remarkable the effort so many people made to rescue these people. Man's humanity to man...I like this story.
