The willow tree in the front yard is my wind sock. Its soft branches told me yesterday the winds were from the west. And were they ever! We had wind advisories from the weather service. Boy I have to admire the brave truck drivers of our nation that keep our commerce going! They have to go out and do their job even in dangerous weather. Yesterday a semi got blown in to the median on the Perrine Bridge heading in to Twin Falls. The truck driver was pretty shook up and couldn't talk to the press. He or she was probably thinking how lucky it was they were heading south and blew in to the median instead of heading north and being blown off the bridge!The accident bent the whole trailer. I, on the other hand, had the option of staying out of the weather. I read the book Aunt Frannie sent me. The Kite Runner

Another wonderful picture. I'd say the Newman family definetly has photographic talent. Thanks for speaking up for truck drivers. I worry everytime Cliff has to go out in bad weather. But I can take comfort in the fact that he is one of the safest drivers I've ever seen. Was the Kite Runner a good book?
Yikes! I would be shaken up too if I got blown around on the bridge.
How is the Kite Runner? We were going to read it for bookclub, but one of my friends couldn't get through it, because of something about a little boy, and so I was sure I couldn't read it while I'm pregnant.
