It's a Twister, Aunty Em!!! (Continued)!

Well, things calmed down and now we're back to normal. Well, as normal as Palm Springs ever is. Remember the Lone Ranger & Tonto riding to the rescue? Dennis & AJ arrived back at their home on Saturday only to find a huge tree had crashed down into their parking area!!!! Their car would've been CRUSHED. See what I mean about there being a gay god?

The roof from next door has been taken out of the tree and the debris is all gone. Kudos to Richard for getting it done so quickly. See, it pays to know people! It took Stuart and I 6 1/2 hours on Sunday to clean up. The pool and spa were like swamps, greenybrownysludgyswampy. You could almost imagine something primevil slithering out!!!! There were leaves from trees, sand from the desert and crap from everywhere else. Our pool man Augusto, bless his heart, called to see if we needed help. YES. So he and his son came by Sunday morning and within an hour everything was clean and sparkling. Nothing primevil in our waters!!!

Needless to say, the weather forecast was for more high winds and rain today. It didn't happen but I'm sure it was good for business at The Home Depot or Lowe's. They probably sold a record number of tarps!!!!! Thanks once again for the scare tactics weather people!!! Maybe you should start thinking about not scaring people away during the summer? Now there's a thought!

Wasn't that amazing? We got a couple of big blasts at home, but when we took a drive around town, we were amazed at the damage! Like a small, concentrated hurricane.
