Um, there's a lot of water outside

Look at all the lovely pictures of Pittsburgh and what Irene did to it.  We haven’t had flooding out here even close to this since anyone can remember.  I was not trapped in this.  I was in downtown Pittsburgh after work on Friday desperately trying to find a place to stay.  Why do you ask?  It seems that a state of emergency was declared on my town of Etna.  I’ve been staying at my wonderful girlfriends house ever since then.

Getting back to Etna today was not fun either.  3 ways to get in to town.  Only one way not barricaded with mudslides across the road.  That last way was difficult too because only Etna residents and cleanup crews were allowed in the area.  I have nothing with me that has my Etna address on it.  That cop was nice so he let me go. 

Get back to my home.  Anthony knows how large a hill I live on so no flood damage.  I was just hoping it would still be there with all the mudslides I was hearing about.

And that’s my weekend.
