Weekend Shots 9/18-9/19/10

We conducted a little experiment with the dry ice the power company was handing out to help people during our blackout from the 2 tornados and 1 micro burst that blew through my neighborhood on Thursday night. Too bad you can't hear what it sounded like. Imagine a bubbling witch's cauldron, that's what it sounded like when Jim poured hot water over the dry ice.

This pic is really from Friday night. Jim brought out the sparklers that he couldn't find on the 4th of July. Notice how dark my block is. It was a bit spooky to look up and down and not see a single bit of light coming from anyone's house.

Oh my!! Dry ice? Can be dnagerous!! At least you had something to help cool!

I know what that total darkness is like. We had come into town one night in Ohio when there was a total blackout. It was weird!!! We forget just how one little light makes the difference.
