Re:Water Cooler May 18 - 24
Morning folks,<br>What a weekend. Had a supercell t-storm blow through Friday afternoon around 1430. 3" (tennis ball size) hail missed us by a 1/4 mile. Tornado followed. Got off the river. Went back to town to see how shook up wife and the gang were. Got back to the motel in time to watch 3 more supercell's pound the area. 5 hours, four more tornados, umpteen alarms, and 8" of rain later things started to settle down. Sucked down a bit of medicidal alcohol to get the nerves back in order. Went out and drained 6" of water out of the bed of the truck. Got another cold one, checked the weather, and went to bed. Thirty minutes later we had to evacuate the motel due to a fire in one of the rooms. Had a few more cold ones. Got up a few hours later and headed to the river to find the launch ramp under 25 FEET of water. Went back to the motel, had a couple of hydraulic porkchops for breakfast, took the wife out and about town, and headed home. End result - one drum that weighed about 4 oz.<br>Now, I've got a big brisket slow cooking outside. With my luck, the dog will turn the cooker over and eat the meat.<br>I see crows in the garden. Think I'll get the old shooting iron out and kill something. Maybe dirt daubers haven't built a nest in the barrel.<br><br>sickandtiredofbeingsickandtiredShor tround out

Wow,...talk about a rough weekend........
SR, you always gotta story to top all the rest.
Glad you and yours made it through the storms and such unhurt.
Now go watch out for the dog.

I'M BACK ! ! ! ;D ;D<br><br>Whew!,,,,,,,,,<br> A little over a week with three women (The Wife,,, The Daughter,,, and The Grandbaby) in Mississippi,,,,,,,, and you guys think that storms and tornados are rough? : <br> Just kidding,,,,, ;D We had a pretty good time. Had to dodge the tornados and hail storms on the way back home, but missed every one of them. I guess I got a lots of catching up to do. I'm gonna have to break down and get a laptop so I can take it with me I reckon.<br> I've got to go into work at noon today because we have visitors coming to the plant. What a way to start out the week of 4-12 shift! Ya'll have a good one! ;D

Good Day Dtronians!!! I had a much better weekend than SR did. It rained a little on us saturday but the boat has a top so the beer didn't get watered down any ;D<br><br> Good fishing, we caught upwards of 60 fish round abouts, had a wonderful time and best of all was how quiet and peaceful it was. I sure did miss you guys though : well maybe just a little ;D<br><br>SR, I got a map here that will get you to the boat if you need it, just let me know when so I can stock the coolers
