Stormy weather

So we have been having these ridiculous torrential thunderstorms almost every afternoon lately. One of them caused a huge limb to break off one of our trees by the deck. It was probably weakened by the ivy vine that has been strangling it for years.

 

 

You can hardly tell it is a branch for all the ivy. We should have cut it back a long time ago but that vine really sort of scared us. Thank goodness there wasn't a giant at the top. However in related news it seems that Johnny Depp will be playing the giant in a Disney movie coming out on Christmas day...hmmm.

 

 

Pots smashed

 

 

Ed tries to clean up. Nice legs though and I don't mean the table.

 

Deck got crunched. But the worst part was...

 

Mr. Moon bought it. Mary Grace said it is ok, he just looks surprised. Well y'all know who else doesn't like storms.

 

between my otto and chair.

 

The back end didn't quite make it.

 Lucy is on the final count down before leaving for college, so we are trying to pack in all the fun we can.

 

Lunch at Biaggi's and a movie.

 

This isn't the movie we saw but I couldn't resist this shot. We saw 100 Feet. It was visually beautiful but dragged a bit.


I couldn't end this post with out saying how sad I am about Robin Williams being gone. He was such a big part of all our entertainment lives. I loved that he said his favorite character to play was the genie from Aladdin.
