Rain In my house.


Rain on my house., originally uploaded by luis847.

During the height of the storm it started raining inside my house.
Ceiling came down it was actually really scary. It was around 6 am or
so. It just made the wind sound so much more louder. Good thing I put
tile in a few months ago.

My backyard.



This is what the storm did to my poor bananas :( I fared pretty good due to the fact that my house is a one story structure nestled in between three two story houses. Pretty much they shielded most of the wind...they had tons of damage...I had minor....

I've decided to ride out this storm. I live far enough inland that I
feel relativly safe. We expect winds to peak at about 90 miles per
hour sustained. Worried about trees near house.

Fonville feeder team building


Fonville feeder team building, originally uploaded by luis847.

A group of profesionals going through a course designed to create a working bond between them. Participants usually leave with a renewed sense of collaboration. I truly enjoy facilitating these groups, plus I get out of the office and I can enjoy the great outdoors!
