Surviving the Week of Natural Disasters

Nature is throwing a party here in Virginia. We've had the dismal swamp fire going on. Then on Wednesday, Nature threw us for a loop by rattling the ground with an earthquake. And yesterday, we were in the midst of tornadoes and a hurricane! Luckily, things weren't really that bad. It's more unusual than anything else. We never lost power for more than a few seconds and we're very greatful.

Our backyard during the storm....Nothing much
to look at...just the pepper plants have seen
better days!

Well, I just wanted to put a little update here to say, we survived!! :) Ronnie will be going out today with some other members of our church to help where he can. Today looks like a beautiful day! Hopefully all the rain put out that fire! Happy Sunday!
