Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

SOUND OFF!!! Ever have something REALLY bugging you and nowhere to vent about it? Well, this is the place. It does not have to be fauna oriented at all! Get it off your chest right here. |

Just woke up to pounding rain, non stop lightning. Harvey was just late getting here but he has arrived.

Hopefully no tornadoes. They are the highly dangerous and unpredictable component of land falling hurricanes. Yeah, on top of everything else, of course....
Hope you don't have any damages...

Unfortunately things look bad. The street in front of and beside me is flooded (and I continue to see motorists drive through the deep waters), the water is over the sidewalk and up onto my lawn at times and recedes somewhat during lulls in the rain. Earlier I saw someone's mailbox float by.
I mentioned that I was fixing to move in a few weeks so most of what I own is in boxes in the garage which will flood first, but things are stacked up in there and the walkway between kitchen and garage is barely passable because I stacked the patio set and garden stuff there so they would be thrown about in the wind and possibly hurt someone.
On the other hand, the boxes are double stacked, it may be that the top layer of boxes will escape any water.
I was able to find the box with the albums of baby pictures so those are safe in the house with me.
I'm hoping and praying that the house will not flood but with days of rain in front of me, I don't know what will happen.
What's important is not the stuff though, I am fine, my sons, daughter in law and grand baby in Houston are fine but flooded into their area too just like I am. But people are what are important and we are all OK, thank you for asking.

Yeah, hope things will be OK for you. Are their any dams upstream from your area that are in danger of breaking open? This storm seems like it is highly unusual for the amount of rain it will produce in that area, so any dams made were probably not designed with this much water pressure in mind. So you might want to check that out if you haven't already. If there is any danger of that, you might want to bail out to higher and safer ground.

I hope everyone is doing well. Stay dry as best you can and anyone in the rockport area in need of supplies pm me. I will be going down this weekend most likely to see what's left of our family house.
