On my first website I had a picture of the bayou at its normal level in Fall.
This is now after Gustav.
Water has dropped a couple of inches today so if we don't get any rain, we may gain a few steps before we get another hurricane. I thought I saw a beaver a while ago. That would be okay but I'm keeping my eyes closely peeled for alligators and snakes. Usually there's about 30 feet and a hill between me and an alligator. Now the water is just a few feet away.
Yesterday, it was cloudy and rainy. The sound of chain saws was everywhere. It's so beautiful out today though. Low humidity, 77 degrees, a light breeze. The only disturbance in the fresh air is the occasional smell of smoke from burning limbs and debris. Seems like all of nature is relaxing, breathing a sigh of relief.
I truly hope and pray that this isn't the calm before the next storm. I wouldn't wish this on anyone but I'd like to see Ike go to Mexico..

Hopefully the rains will take a break and the water level will go down for a while. :S
I'm just glad it's all over and that we have power. It didnt do much damage here. Just some limbs down from the neighbors trees. We faired better with Ike than with Rita.
I'm glad to hear you're all ok!
