Pictures from Hurricane Irene



Brady dealing with the storm the way he deals with most things.
Brady and Casey after Casey had a sedative to keep her from freaking out over the thunder.
The only bad thing that happened was that I woke up with no power and unable to make coffee.  I am particularly dim before I've had coffee and completely unable to cope with life.  Trying to figure out how to boil water without the use of the electric stove was a bit of a challenge.  Thankfully S pointed out the only attempt that worked or I'd probably have burned the house down by now and still wouldn't have had a cup!
There's candles in the coffee can.  It didn't get hot enough to boil.

This one was set up outside but I didn't get a picture of it then because I accidentally lit the whole camp stove on fire and had to pull out the propane and run away:
This was what I used for attempt #2.  Epic failure.

Attempt #3.

Attempt #3  It took forever but finally worked!

Finally able to deal with the aftermath.
