Evacuated By Irene

Weeks ago we chose a weekend for Uncle Zak and Aunt Dodo to bring Ashton and Breyden for a visit.  Little did we know they were going to be evacuated from Mathews for hurricane Irene and bringing pets and foul weather north with them!  We managed to have a good time anyway, from our trip to see the dinosaur bones and butterflies at the Natural History Museum, to our lunch at Ben's Chili Bowl, and a boisterous, wet and windy evening of movies and pizza.  But by Sunday when the storm had passed it was time for them to go back home, to get everyone settled and check on the damage.
