@SHales
I just saw a weather/traffic report that says drivers must go AROUND your part of the world...for another three or four days.

We hear you had a little rain. You okay?

 

[JackieOnLine]

oh-oh, hope she is OK

 

[Spiky Bugger]

Bumping!

 

[JackieOnLine]

@SHales ??

 

[Spiky Bugger]

I've got her phone number around here someplace...

 

[JackieOnLine]

well, let us know.

 

[SHales]

I am ok! Sorry! I have been up to my ass in alligators but the swamp is draining slowly.

Did you see my son on TV giving interviews for the damaged freeway work?

 

[SHales]

The only problem we had here was the re-routed traffic. I live in a town of 800 and it took me 30 minutes to go from my Dad's new house to my house. The morning this all started, I had to take Donna's mother to Cedar City because Donna, (my son Morgan's GF) had a baby boy. The trip over was OK but the trip back was bumper to bumper on a 2 lane highway. I had to turn around and come straight back because the moving van was going to be there and no way could my parents handle that, plus I had arranged for the people to unload their 30 years of crap they have collected.

We still have a LOT of semi trucks as they are still re-routed this way during the day.

My parents got here from Oregon and stayed with me until the van arrived with their furniture. My house is SMALL. lol . 3 adults, 5 dogs, 4 cats and a constant stream of visitors. I had 15 for dinner one night. My anxiety is slowing moving up, up, up.

More whining later.

I probably did but wasn't paying attention to the names...damn!

Yesterday's news mentioned that they wouldn't let them on to much of the Rez to film the damage. And your town was mentioned as part of the work around...so I figured you guys were LIKELY okay. But you disappeared at the wrong time, so I was starting to get all Mom-ish.

 

[SHales]

Well it is actually nice to know someone worries about me. I have a film clip somewhere, saved a few.

Here is one of the newscasts. Luke Rollins, engineer for NDOT. He starts at 1:06. Handsome guy! Says he is not cutting his hippy hair until he has the latest degree he is working on in his hand

Luke is a cutie!

glad you are OK for now (more coming?) and are you serious about alligators? I'm going to guess no. anyway, it's not whining when things are really bad!

Not just a cute boy, he knows big words. That is good.

 

[SHales]

My other son made fun of him for using big words. I told him that Luke always does, he has just been dumbing things down for you. That didn't go over well.
