Hurricane Isaac vs Nanna's

Snookie · 09-02-2012, 12:11 PM

Well it's day 6 with no power here in Lizard Creek:{

Just wanted to let everyone know the Nanna's didn't let ISAAC kick their a**

The leaves got shreded a little but plants are putting out new leaves and have enjoyed the 13" of rain the last few days.

These nanna's are pretty tough rascals:}

I like DAT ME!

Good to hear that you and your plants are safe. Hope you get your power back soon.

trebor · 09-02-2012, 03:19 PM

Hang in there .. Good to know ya made it without damage
Hurricanes Suck!

Darkman · 09-02-2012, 06:27 PM

Hang in there Mayor,

You might have to call in some political favors!

Glad all is as best as can be expected.

We definetly dodged a bullet here.

Jose263 · 09-02-2012, 08:58 PM

Mayor - Glad you and your nanas made it thru Isaac.
No power sucks - Hope Fema is on the ball this time.

I remember what south Louisiana was like with no power - no air conditioning. Spent 12 weeks in the summer at Fort Polk once.

Hope you get power back soon.

Thanks folks apparently got power back some time this morning, I'm still doing Hurricane duty lol

Oh and about Fort Polk, La. how did you like the mosquitoes? :}

Mosquitoes are the size of small sparrows here in Lizard Creek

No prob...It's all good in the neighborhood:} Did come accross a flood victim in distress though but got her taken care of...?

It's nice to hear you and D Mae are OK.
I can't believe you live with those mosquitoes.
I have millions of taranchulas, centipedes and scorpions,
but no mosquitoes.

Thanks I'll just keep the mosquitos.

All three of them have venom and one throws irritating hairs at you.

Yes Sir, I think I'll stick to the mosquitos.

Don't remember mosquitos at Ft Polk. Will never forget the heat and humidity though. Had to break starch every day. By the end of the days training I looked almost as bad as my trainees.

Breaking starch isn't that like living in an oven all day? Starched up no wonder you were skeeter proof.. :^)

TommyMacLuckie · 09-07-2012, 09:17 AM

I managed to find 4 of the 12 or so little Gros Michel and Double Mahoi bananas I lost in Isaac's storm surge (they were at my father-in-law's house, up high but not high enough). I'm going to go looking for more of them later today. The water has finally gone down enough and the alligators are most likely not hanging around anymore.

My Saba at home broke, as did almost all of them at my father in law's and the one's at another place all fell over. Some Orinoco broke. Some fell down. Most are tattered.

At least that's what I can remember for now.

Darkman · 09-07-2012, 03:08 PM

Tommy sorry for your losses. I hope they grow back quickly and maybe you can find some more of the Gros Michels and Double Mahois.

Thanks

Daisy hates the OFF repellent sprayed on her every day but soon it will be down to 84 degrees and the humidity at 70% bye bye mosquitoes lol

Winter time in Lizard Creek not far away!!!

Here's some flood water pictures...

First Picture is family filling sand bags in attempt to keep water out, Second picture is water rising in Cemetary, ultimatly coffins were floating up out of the ground and had to have the coroner attend to.
Third picture is a cannon approx in 10' of water
