I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dog. At our age our
pets become our furry children. My attorney swears they are
better than children. She has both and prefers shelter dogs.<br>

<div>I think this area is now about 95% planted but it is
currently raining cats and dogs and we have had maybe 2" this
evening. I was over by the Ohio line at Richmond IN today and
it looks pretty well planted (lots of hills and valleys that
drain well) but about 40 miles north of us there are big flat
areas that tend to pool badly and stand big shallow 5 acre
lakes for weeks. Some of those areas take a drain line about 3
or 4 miles long to drain them, no close creeks. I suspect that
there is a lot of water standing up around Portland.</div>

<div>I had to put our family dog down this week... We have had
her about 15 years.. Somebody had dumped her out and we
usually just call the shelter but she was obviously quite
smart so we kept her. She did very well until about last year.
She was mostly Chow but got bad in the back and hips like a
German Shepherd. This year she went almost completely deaf but
had learned hand signals quickly but then her vision was
slipping. Finally she was becoming a little unstable and we
were beginning to worry about her biting someone. The last
couple of days we have been trying to adjust to her not being
a huge part of our everyday lives. For many years now when we
buried a family pet we plant a tree at their grave and the
tree then is given the pets name since the pet becomes part of
the tree. When I buried her and put the sod back down I left a
piece out of the center and planted several sunflowers there.
I have a small tulip poplar that I will move to her grave.<br>

I would definitely look into it with your utility
commission. I’m certain the energy company itself would
not be very helpful in trying to find out what’s
possible so go through the state commission. </div>

<div>Exciting weather here last night (SW
Houston suburb).We were out and just got some
rain, and missed</div>
<div>a small tornado nearby that took out power
to thousands in area for a while. Tops broke
off of some</div>
<div>power poles, farm sheds with roofs
scattered about, and some tree and fence
damage. Fortunately</div>
<div>our house kept power. Early morning reports
were about 2200 without power, 4050 without
power later</div>
<div>morning, and now down to about 1500 without
power. My toy shed and surrounding
neighborhood about</div>
<div>a mile from our house had been without
power for 20 hours. <br>
