It pains me to even write that absurd statement. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING. Just yesterday while working in the library at my kids school we received a box of brand new books from Scholastic that was delivered to us. There was a book all about Global Warming. It kinda bugged me. I do think that weather changes quite a bit. For heaven sakes it snowed in Mesa, AZ several years back. In Mesa! Some years are going to be hotter than others, some years aren't going to have nearly as much rain as others, and some years there will be too much rain. I think that Al Gore is a brilliant man. So incredibly smart how he took some scientists ideas and research and became a "professional" at it. And he made people believe there is "global warming". WOW! How did he do that? Incredible. Made a documentary, help write a book, and won the Nobel Peace Prize? Brilliant! Yes, yes of course I am being facetious.
Anyways, I wanted to write about this crazy weather here in Arizona lately. Like many other places around the United States, and the world for that matter, the weather has been a little squeerly. It's been raining a whole heck of a lot and windy. Oh, so windy. There is this HUGE tree on the side of my house, right next to the boys bedroom. I have been checking that tree every few hours. It's making me nervous! Well, last night it became so bad people lost electricity, a tornado touched down a few times in different parts of the valley, it dumped rain, and it was crazy windy. Like 65-75 mile an hour winds!
Here are some shots of last night...
Look at the ripples in the water from the strong winds...
Here is the aftermath...
