    Yesterday I saw the storms headed your way. It was the most awesome sight because the sky overhead was blue and the sun was shinning, yet immediately to the east one could see volumes of clouds higher than I had ever seen before. The sun lit up the shape and size and color of the clouds. It was the first time I could see a storm without being in it. Unfortunately we were in our car and I didn't have my camera with me. By the time we got home the sun was no longer out and I could not get a picture.

    Kimmy, I hope you are okay. I sympathize with what you had to go through as tornado warnings are the most stressful things for me, even though we have always been spared a direct hit.

    Ramanth.. I've been seeing the news about the tornadoes hitting Williamston and wondering if you and yours are safe.. You clearly made it through the first one okay, but the news people said a second, more destructive, one sneaked in and hit not long after an "all clear" had been given from the first.

    I am praying fervently that you, your family (of course including all species), your friends, and as many people as possible around Williamston made it through all this safely. From what I've seen on TV, there seems to have been a lot of devastation. I am also praying for all who suffered losses in these storms.

    We all hope to hear good news from you, but whatever has happened, know that many people are thinking of you and praying for and caring about you.

    Good News!!


    They're ALL A-OK and SAFE!!

    Kimmy, Andy, Kia & Chipper are in the Bus headed north to Traverse City, Michigan,
    for a Halloween Event - they'll be back home on Sunday.

    The Apartment suffered NO damage - other than loosing Power & Cable =
    NO puter.
    Andy said he din't hear no Freight Train - just a Thunder Storm.
    The FurKids mostly slept through the "Big One".
    Power came back on as they were leaving - but the internet remains out.

    Kimmy said she took a lot of *snappies* of the extensive damage "in town" -
    she'll post 'em when they get back from the weekend trip.

    THANKS for *worryin* about them!
