Tropical Storm Fay
As many of you know Florida has taken a beating from Tropical Storm Fay. 4 landfalls in one state! That is historic. The center of Fay went right over Gainesville. Which, in this storm meant that we really didn't get a lot of activity. Ok, well, we did according to people who live here. However, Dallas and I have been through worse thunderstorms in Arkansas. There was a lot of wind and TONS of rain. Thank God we are in-land or we would have had flooding like some of the Southcentral areas of Florida. She was a lot more of a problem for people on her outward whipping bands. However, I was preparred. Dallas was gone all week when she was suppose to hit which left me to preparations. Lets just say I am glad there was no problem while he was gone!! Needless to say we are all ok. Except for a lot of branches down and power going out once or twice at night, we are good. I only have one question after all of this. Who ever came up with the phrase "You hit like a girl" to be considered an insult?? After TSs like Fay and Hurricanes like Katrina I am not sure we should consider that a bad thing!! Hope everyone is staying dry and happy.
