Hi Ya'll, been in the middle of a whole lot of wind and rain. Our lights just came back on even though we are still experiencing 40mph wind gust and heavy rains. We got more wind than we expected and lost lots of limbs and some shingles, so in the scheme of things we were truly blessed compared to others in the area. It is amazing to hear that people in Alabama were experiencing similar weather. About an hour ago we had our hardest winds, gusting to 79 mph. That is when we began losing the shingles. We are hearing the reports out of NO and continue to pray for them all. Has anyone heard anything about Buras and Grand Isle where landfall was? We have not heard anything about them down there! Everyone still in the path of this powerful, large and dangerous, stay safe! Just the little bit we got makes me think about what others in the path around the eye must be experiencing! We continue to pray for them. Kimmie
