We had a Lab, Susie, who was afraid and would take off running during a storm. We got home from work once, after there had been a storm and Susie was missing. We later got a call from a family about 5 miles away that Susie was with them. We kept a tag on her collar with our phone number. Always glad to hear from you. I am enjoying the painting of 'big boy'.<br />Love,<br />HennyHenny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-7598448256606244712013-08-26T06:18:07.489-07:002013-08-26T06:18:07.489-07:00Dear Terry,

I would love to hear your grandmother's 'haint' stories and about the 'wampus'. Couldn't old people (even older than me) tell some scary things!!?? I remember hearing them talk about weird stuff and I would be scared to death. What is a 'wampus' anyway? :) I think I've heard of Ninety-Six, SC! It is 57 here!<br />Love,<br />HennyHenny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-84319231122933255202013-08-26T06:05:23.637-07:002013-08-26T06:05:23.637-07:00Hey Vicki,

After that hail storm there were some dead birds on the ground. It's good that you made yourself not be afraid of storms because of the boys. You have always been strong!! I may be getting a little better!?

I had to teach myself to be brave. I did not sleep much during the storm but I would lay in the bed with the boys and comfort them. Is that the storm that knocked the Guineas out of the trees that daddy use to tell me about?

I would love to know more about the chickens and getting them in and how to keep them healthy. Well, there's my 2 cents worth! Your stories are priceless! I know miss my grandmother Annie telling me about her 'haint' stories from her girlhood in Ninety-Six, SC, like the 'painter chasing her on a bicycle' and the 'wampus' with big red eyes waiting for me on her porch if I chose to try to sneak out at night. I did indeed see the wampus and never went outside. In fact, I stay clear of the wampus today. Any way, I love your blog...take good care, it is 56 here this morning!

I'm not very anxious, but if it goes on for a long time, and we get too much water, I don't like to think of being flooded. Hasn't happened to us, there are lots of concrete ditches and drainage canals that take the natural runoff and channel it to the Pacific right near us. This year the Los Angeles river was cleaned up for several miles, and people can now kayak down it! Something we should do one of these days. Lucy, our dog, is terrified of thunder, and fireworks. If we know there is a big storm coming we have a "Thundershirt" to put on her. It helps a bit, but she shakes and pants and sometimes has to have a "doggie downer", tranquilizer. Since we will be gone this September, it is one more thing I will have to tell our new dog-sitter.<br />Hope you enjoy a nice cool day today, with no more storm.<br />Love,<br />PamPamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-24120745456789600342013-08-25T09:23:54.119-07:002013-08-25T09:23:54.119-07:00Henny Penn - I love your stories!

I miss my grandmother who has been gone from this earth since 1984 and I miss her more every day. I am so glad that the days are cooling off and drying out, let's see what the next month brings ...thanks again for the stories, keep them coming...

I think everyone within a 100 mile radius of grandma knew how scared she was. Poor Grandma. I remember how scare of storms you were when we were little. You have gotten much better! Those pictures of Randall are so sweet. I miss him. And look how handsome Jackie was. Already! I miss him too. <br /><br />Love you!!<br />LynnLynn Hastyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16367660287680792496noreply@blogger.com
