Fourth day of travel

Today we went the aquarium. It was kinda disappointing because there wasn't much there.  Although there was tiger which is kinda odd for an aquarium for fish.  Came home and layer around the house. My uncle comes and tells us of a wild fire about 45-50 miles to the south and kind of on our route home. We'll see if the road is open on Friday to get home. Went out about 10 miles or so to get pics of the smoke (still well away from the fire and all) after getting some pics of the smoke plume which I haven't figured out to put on here yet. (If I figure it out I'll add them). Tomorrow we're going to the air and space museum which should be pretty cool.

Third day of travel

Today we went to a natural history museum which was pretty interesting. They had exhibits about ancient Egypt and outer space and the planets.  Then there was the other exhibits with all the ancient animals like the dinosaurs and the mammoths and other animals that don't exist any more.  Tomorrow I think we're going to an aquarium thingy to see live animals. Should be fun.

Second day of travel

Didn't do much today. Went to a flea market where they had all kinds of stuff.  I ate a chocolate croissant from here. It was a regular croissant but it was stuffed with chocolate and had chocolate on it.  Then I sampled some kind Lebonese thingy. It was some type of bread stuffed with 99% pure hamburger. (If any one knows what this is please comment) they had a spinach one too but I don't like spinach so I got he hamburger one. It certainly tasted different probably cuz of the hamburger. After that we had lunch then went home and stayed around being lazy. The excitement should start tomorrow.

First day of travel

Today obviously as the title says was the first day of travel. Traveled by car for about 11 hours. It was a good drive. I drove most of the way except for in New Mexico. We did drive by Capulin which is an extinct volcano. Pretty interesting to look at. Other then that nothing else happened today

Storms

We had a bad storm Wednesday night with really heavy rain high winds and of course lightning and thunder.  The storm I think was pretty damn awesome but overall.. we got hammered. After the storm we still had high winds with winds at any where between 50 and 80 MPH (80 and 128 km/h). Damage was every where mainly caused by high winds. Some trees were uprooted, some windows got blown out cuz of all the crap flying around, some fences got blown down, I'd heard on the police radio part of a bridge collapsed but no one was under it I guess at the time it happened. A gas pump roof thingy at a gas station collapsed on some cars. Didn't hear if any one got hurt in that one. Then lastly... a roof collapsed at some motel. Guests were evaced out. Didn't hear if any one was injured there either. Some areas of town lost power and didn't get it back until late afternoon early evening today. Traffic lights were out at various locations and a few were out at a few locations at my drive to work and from work (which from work really surprised me cuz it should've been up by then).
 My house.. fortunately didn't suffer any damage and didn't lose power unlike other areas. All in all despite all the damage.. it was an awesome storm
