I told you a few days ago: near the end of this series there’d be a little pay-off for regular visitors to arloandjanis.com. As I remember, this is the first appearance of the Cobra-like sports car that prominently and incongruously appears at the top of this blog. In the strip above and every day on the Web, we are left to wonder, “What is Arlo really like?”

Some places that’s more likely than others. BTW, we did and do have a white Christmas/Boxing Day. 1-4″, depending on how the wind blows. Supposed to be sunny Sun., but hi only in the teens F.
Peace, emb
Binoculars for Christmas Ghost?

We are having flash flooding and tornadoes here. Crossing my bridge from street I went in over slippers just before creek broke to go a foot deep across road and crashed into my retaining wall.
Standing on bridge and waterfalls poring into mill run is beautiful sight and mesmerizing to listen to.
How are we in the southern states? I know bad Christmas tornadoes.
Jackie, the pic is from Ghost. But I was able to get to the company site. Here is for the one he sent: https://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Covers/Knockout/KD5995H.html
But I saw others there you might like too, so look at the others.
Wet Christmas Eve and Christmas Day/night here in Tuscaloosa. Birmingham had a small tornado that wrecked 3 houses, but no one killed or injured there. Massive flooding in northern 1/3 rd of the state. Governor has declared state of emergency for those areas. Finally got to see the full moon tonight as storms have now left. Sunny day for the first time in 3 days. And had to run the A/C for the last 3 days too. Too rainy to open windows and too hot with them closed.

Got our shirts! My wife was very happy with this Christmas gift. Thank you!
Ghost, the problem with trying to lose weight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evpTbLxiTjU&list=PLzAgPTA2_pP1Ja1CUN86lGLyI7JMc2-Uc&index=3
Msrk. Shaun the Sheep was funny. Yes, I can relate to that. I am glad you and cats and family aren’t floating away. We are supposed to have two more days of this. Voodoo the Louisiana tri-colored Catahoula Current has moved onto my canopy bed in case the water gets in. Tomorrow I have to go make sure the new doghouse is dry and secure for elderly two. We tried to move Charlie the fox hound out there too but 20 year old pit took exception.
We are on high ground here, not near any streams or anything. Water pools in the yard but nothing that would endanger us. I bet there are areas near the Warrior River that are having troubles, though. Haven’t heard if it’s nearing flood stage or not. Might take a day or so for all pouring in upstream to make it here. On that weather link I posted earlier is some video of a flooded waterfall. Story with it says that area got 20 inches of rain in 24 hours.
A paragraph that could have been better written: “A police officer shouted ‘Get back into your house, there has been a gas explosion’.
“Two or three minutes later the police officer jumped into his and drove away. After he gave the warning he evacuated himself.”

Somehow missed that little aside up there, Ghost. For the rest of you, nudists or naturists are nice people who like to take their clothes off, usually for reasons unlike Ghosts favorites but not excluding them, in privacy. Most nudist resorts are more boring than a Sunday school picnic and activities not unlike summer camp. Me, I like pools and sun, skip bingo and karaoke. You are safe in our presence.
“…activities not unlike summer camp.” Hum, let’s see…volleyball, jump rope, sack races, tag, Twister…yep, works for me. π
Well, my personal club is hosting both regional and national conventions this year Ghost if that really interests you and yes, they do. Not sure about legality in Mississippi even with consenting adults who participate in child like activities sans clothing.
Although sans is what some get in their swim suits when they go to beach.

I’m sorry to read that so many of you are having problems with bad weather. Personally, I plan to spend part of tomorrow watching hummingbirds.
Good plan. I hope some of mine made it to their winter grounds safely,
Oh my, just read weather report. We are in a flood warmed area. Well, I can see that out my front door but the list of cities with life threatening flooding includes McAlester just south of me where I planned to truck shop. Forget it, truck can wait. So can hair and nails wait a bit longer. Then after up to a foot of rain, weather turns cold down to mid 20s at night, so freezing.
Oh, and real time strip is totally awesome today JJ. Dang you are good!
Good morning Villagers…..
Looked at the radar, there’s a whole lotta rain out there and it’s coming our way in about an hour….temps to drop from 68 degrees to about 50 degrees by noon.
Worked all by myself (there’s a song there somewhere π ) yesterday. And yes, I did wear a dust mask, those little chicks can sure raise the dust. Good temperature inside should be about 75 degrees, it was 67 when I got in there. May have to go out and manually turn fans off at the toggle switches…when it get light. Working alone again today. Andrew was told by the Boss to take the weekend off and spend it with Brooklynne Rose. They are having their Christmas today.
Jerry, glad you enjoyed the whole song. I know that song by heart, I love the lyrics.
I read on whether.com where Dallas got hit by a tornado….didn’t click on the video, so if any of you Villagers live there….prayers are with you…….Amen.
Have a blessed Lord’s Day
GR π if it keeps on raining…..
