    Glad to hear Gretchen is ok! It was so scary how fast those storms popped up. Lansing didn't get a drop of rain that day.

    Gretchen called me this evening...

    She and her family are fine. Their power is back on now, but they still don't have Internet access.
    She said to thank folks here for all the concern, good wishes, and prayers. She appreciates them very much and will appreciate any more anyone wants to send along.

    She should be back on line soon. She told me of the widely-varied degrees of destruction there and expressed the amazement and wonder of all that there were no deaths, no serious injuries.

    Sending love to PT friends, from Gretchen and Pat and all

    Hello everyone - thanks for all the concern, prayers and good wishes. We were so very lucky - lost a couple of big trees, and the TV antenna and satellite dish. Power was back about 6pm yesterday - internet around 5pm today.

    If anyone is interested in pictures, go to You Tube and type in Dexter tornado. Lots of videos of damage and several of the actual tornado - in progress.

    Thank, Pat, for calling and checking up on us
    Thanks, Donna, for starting this thread

    Luckily I'm almost 2 hours from Dexter, but I have several friends there and was SO worried (luckily, I've since gotten texts from all of them). One of my good friends actually ended up being stuck in a locker room during the worst of it.

    A few have been helping with the clean up, and the pictures they're posting on Facebook are absolutely awful! If I didn't have a major family crisis occurring, I would have driven up by now to help with the process.



    So glad no one was seriously injured.
    in on the joke and i cant stop laughing
