A 32 foot extension ladder has joined the house. Danny helped me position the ladder to clean out the back gutters which were filled. He would hoist up the top section with the rope and pulley, and he would place the boards under one ladder foot to make things level.

Kathy was very nervous about the entire thing.

Today was a strange weather day. It would start raining, stop, the sun would come out, and the cycle would repeat again. The wind was so blustery that I was concerned about being blown off the ladder. The hammock rocked itself in the wind.

In the evening we found out tornados had swept through northern Alabama and were moving over north Georgia. Kathy and Nicole spent the evening concerned about the tornados coming our way. We listened to the news reports through dinner and on into the evening.

It’s just as well that Kathy and Nicole get so concerned. If a tornado does ever come, they will be the ones who get me and Danny off the ladder and into the basement.

P.S.

I felt Kelly’s new molars. She can do some real chompin’ with those back teeth. She is very proud of them.
