Gretchen is okay!!!
I talked on the phone last evening with Gretchen (Grace), who lives in Dexter. She and Doug and critters are fine. Their power is out. They have a generator, but she doesn't know when she'll be able to get back on PT. She asked me to let you know she's okay.
There was some serious property destruction. Some buildings leveled with others nearby not even touched. No serious injuries, no deaths reported, thank God for that.
Where I live in Ann Arbor (about 10 miles from Dexter) we got really heavy storms but no tornadoes.
From today's Detroit Free Press front page:
======>
At least 50 houses were damaged or destroyed after a tornado touched down near Dexter, but no reports of injuries. Elsewhere there also were reports of twisters or funnel clouds near Ida Township, Monroe and Lapeer.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
