Hello! Hello! Hello!!

21 years ago

Power is back on and other than leaves and twigs on the lawn everything is fine. Wind was not too bad and got some needed rain.

I had at least 6 hummingbirds at my feeders all day. I could not believe the activity. My family was all here and we had the best time watching them play.

Looked at a feeder in the backyard one time and there was this little hummer clinging on for dear life feeding. He just swayed with the feeder.

Miss Sherry good to see you are fine too.

    What a relief to hear that you and your family and hummers are alright over there! Take care.

  • 21 years ago

    Glad to hear that you and your hummers are okay.

    Dennis is leaving none to soon.

    great news, mimidi! and those hummingbirds knew just where to go during the storm.

    did you make it ok, tom? did dennis hit your place?

    Nothing but some wind and rain Standard. How are things with you. Last time I watch the weather what was left of Dennis was supposed to dump so large amounts of rain on your area.

    My DH woke me earlier to tell me that "your hummingbirds are back at it this morning". They are all over the place. I guess it is the unsettled weather.

    Mimidi! I'm so glad you and yours are ok! I'd be a basket case if I lived where you are. I got to drive thru Allison a couple of years ago and I don't ever want to do it again. It's great that the hummies knew where to go during the worst of the storm!

    We made it fine through this one, Mimidi, but then we don't live in Navarre!

    it began raining here about 10pm sunday night with some light wind. now there is a gentle misty rain falling straight down, and it has brought the hummers with it. there are several adult male rubies chasing each other and using the feeders nonstop. I've seen 2 in the time it took me to type this.
    the only garden damages were a robert kemp canna that had just opened lost the blossom and my 5 foot tithonia mexican sunflower toppled onto my hibiscus, which is blooming. I staked up the tithonia. all is well. we really need this rain.
    make that 4. 2 more sightings during that paragraph.
    gotta go watch!

    Hey there MIMIDI glad to hear you are safe and sound and the hummingbirds are too! :) My thoughts were with you!

  • 21 years ago

    Glad to hear everyone is ok. Those hummers are amazing!

  • 21 years ago

    Glad to hear you're OK, Mimi. My cable TV and internet service went down about 9:00 last night and it is just back up. We really didn't get that much bad weather either.

  • 21 years ago

    Glad your okay too Oubliette! Sarah

  • 21 years ago

    Thanks, Sarah. :-)

  • 21 years ago

    Oubliette good to see you back with us adn that you didn't suffer any damage. It was a blessing that Dennis fell apart like he did.

    And now we have Emily? Then Franklin?

  • 21 years ago

    Glad you folks are OK. If there are enough storms this year maybe we'll have one named Mimi or Oubliette.

  • 21 years ago

    Ward I don't think the world is ready for that one.

  • 21 years ago

    That's cute! Sarah

  • 21 years ago

    Mimidi,

    Glad to hear ya'll and the hummies are doing fine.

    Now kick some of that wind and rain to south Texas. It's much too hot and humid down here. One good thing is that the hummies are emptying out the feeders daily.
