Why did the turkeys cross the road? Because Sugar, our Great Pyrenees dog, was barking at them through the open front windows. They moved out of our front yard (in the foreground) rather quickly.
--weather update-- it has been raining nonstop... I think our cumulative rain total so far for this storm is in excess of 6" so far... and it is supposed to continue to rain over night... not sure exactly when Hurricane Helene will be coming through our area with winds and more rain potential.
@illinilass St. Bernard’s are very cool dogs! What I didn’t say is I had to roust Sugar from her sleeping spot on the hearth to get her to start barking at the turkeys!
I just sent you a text! I just heard Helene will hit the coast between 8 and 10 tonight and it will stay a Category 2 as it barrels through Georgia. You and Kate stay safe! My rain gauge is a little over 2 inches so far with more rain expected between 2 a.m. and 11 a.m. The worst will be the winds which are really going to cause a lot of damage in Georgia and South Carolina. We had two tornado warnings today, several flash flood warnings, and the entire state is under a tropical storm warning. It's white knuckle time and I hate these weather people who sensationalize bad weather and scare you crazy!
Ha! A fun capture of these turkeys making a quick exit! You go, Sugar! Fav (p.s. I hope you and Kate and your siblings all get through this storm safely, KV. Take care! )
Stay safe during the storm!
