Just in case you don't have access to the weather channel......we here in the panhandle of Florida are waiting for Tropical Storm Claudette to come ashore with lots and lots of rain! Really, I had no idea a tropical storm was even in the Gulf until my MIL called this morning and told us the news. We are located on the weather map above between Pensacola and Tallahassee.....we're such a small town they didn't put our name on the map!
At church, the preacher came over and asked my DH if he thought we should cancel the evening service. Listen, ask ANYBODY except my husband about shutting ANYTHING down during or for a storm! Here's his answer.....It's just going to be a little wind and rain...I don't think we need to cancel. You see, my husband thinks NOTHING of a storm. Even if a Category 5 hurricane heads straight for our house, we aren't leaving. Nope, we're sticking it out no matter what! Everybody can come to our house and stay, cause we're just not going. Now me ??? I get crazy when the barometer drops a point. I rushed home and looked at the weather online and shook my head sadly.....the storm should get really bad about 7 pm.....about when church lets out!
And what does this have to do with the four million dollar house, you ask? Nothing.
After church, we ate out with a sweet couple from church and then rode with them to look at a house the company the husband works for is building. A four million house. Right on the gulf. I forgot my camera! So I'll just tell you that it's four stories and you use your imagination, because that's really the only way I can think of four million dollars anyway!
Oh, by the way, someone else with some storm sense must have been consulted because we got a call that church was cancelled after all!
P.S. It's just sprinkling and not even too very windy. It's 7:22 pm.......maybe DH was right.

I feel bad for anyone in Pensacola.
I really don't think Pensacola is getting much of this particular storm. I have a sister and brother there and the weather is just kind of gloomy....it's raining pretty good here now!
We were living in Pensacola 40 years ago today when Camille hit. I was terrified and all the locals were having hurricane parties. Go figure! Is your hubby a "local"? Hope it isn't too much rain for you. Just build a big pipe to CA and send that excess our way. ;)
HI!!
I will be in Orlando for 1 week next Monday, I told my darling daughter that we deseet p[eople nedd to see rain real bad so I told her jokinly I would like to see a tropical storm or hurricane!!! I was joking of course, but then I saw that yesterday. Hope all is well in the pan handle!!! Stay dry!!!4 million dollar house, I have seen a few 1-2 million dollar homes, 4 million that's alot of house!!!!!
hugs,
jamie
we were going to the shuttle launch next Monday, I think it may be postponed now!!!
How could you even PUT 4 million into a house? I would imagine there is a lot of wasted space and lots of fancy doodahs. Hmmmmm. I could do one for 1 milllion and hve the 3 million left to spend on something else!
Glad the storm went away,too! We are not that far away...
I don't know Tonja! But just the doors and windows which were imported from Germany were $502,000! This is their vacation house! Like I said I can only imagine!
So glad the storm fizzled and that you're all safe down there...looks like the season is heating up though. Ugh...I'd better haul the generator out soon for a test run. Double ugh...
Outrageous and ridiculous!
I'm glad they called off church - just in case!
