Hurricane Irene

We survived the hurricane!

 With minimal flooding to the backyard

 Andy & Aiden's "Hurricane Investigation Station"

located on the bird feeder.
(Yup, it's constructed from, what else? Legos!)

"Fence" the resident chipmunk hung out on the station 

for part of the storm

 It was so dark at 2pm, the front lamp turned on!

 All the howling wind frightened the 70 lb dog so much that she took up post in her "safe zone"
