Hurricane season....please wait till we move!!!!!!
Moving to Alaska means not having to worry about hurricanes ever again...well, I will have to worry about Mom and Marigayle and will pray no hurricanes like Dolly will ever come again. But in Alaska, we will have different problems with weather. Supposedly Juneau has high winds, but as one resident told us, "We just don't name them like ya'll do!" Blizzards will be exciting, the first one anyways. We will prepare to hunker down, just as if we were waiting on a hurricane. We have also heard that a tremor or two may shake us up, and that doesn't sound like much fun either, but we will look to the locals and follow their lead when bad weather approaches. Every one will know the Texans are in town...we will be the crazy bunch running around in our shorts and flip flops in November. We all have boots for the snow and coats warm enough to stand below zero temperatures. We have gloves, mittens, socks, knit hats, sweaters, light jackets, cleats for the snow and whatever else the Bass Pro Shop had for sale this past winter. We are ready for anything weather-wise, and pray we can dig our way out of the snow when it gets deep. Our new home comes with a snowblower and I have two tough men to shovel those sidewalks. I am sure we will all take a tumble or two on the snow paths, but we will try not to act like newbies. Those sourdoughs are going to love us!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!
