[DIERKER]

Hi, dis Yogi. We hab a berry busy weekend in St. Louis. Berry strange. Friday night the weather peeps talk and talk, rain, rain, bad rain, yada, yada, yada. sometimes they talk so much mama get tired of lisennin. But Friday she go in da basement and sew so she lissen. They talk, talk, talk and finally she tell my daddy to get us poor liddle doggies downstairs. She eben get her lizzerd, Nessie, and put her in a box in da closet. She cussin werds I am too polite to repeat cuz us doggies not wantin to go in da closet. IT DARK IN DERE! No lights anymore anywhere. She pushed me in dere and yanked my brudders and sisters in der and yanked my daddy in der and dere was da sound of a choo choo train in my berry own backyard, and somebody in trouble because I herd glass breakin too. She really screamin now, yellin closet like duh, we're already in here crazy wooman. After the choo choo went away we went back upstairs and open da door. Nothin new here. Mama still
 babbling and when she went in da backyard dere be no fence anymore. I picsure myself running free, lubly ears flying in the breeze, but I'll wait until the rain stops. Dere be all kinds of things in my yard. Roofs, and siding, and trees that aren't my trees. Dere be sirens and lots of firemen and policemen and just men, men. I look out da front door but da houses aren't like dey used to be. Some of dem are bald, some of dem are flat. And dem men saying evacuate because ob gas. I say I don't think so, dey nebber made Brudder Elwood leabe and da gas from Elder Clara was the stuff of legends. But we leab to go to Auntie Beth's house. 
MORAL of the story: No dog gets sent in the basement without a leash so I can get there slow backsides into a closet immediately. I swear upon a stack of drool calendars that I will never say yada, yada, yada about a weather report again. If ordered to evacuate, consider your route. Once you get in a car with three dogs, the other two following in the car behind you, it's a bad time to realize every route you want to take is blocked. Always have gas in your car!
Dis Yogi again. Momma tried to take my puter. Anyway, my home is good. Dey propped up my fence so I can't run free fer now, but dere's lots of tears all round. My momma sez we berry, berry lucky. I say she's berry lucky cause she's got me.  Dere be hunnerds of houses here that are brokn. But no broken peeps and I hope no broken pets. 
Yogi, Carly Jane, Dolly, Bernie, and Bunny, and a very thankful Janet
