My husband drives right by it every day on his way to work and back. He had been home over an hour when it hit there, thank God!<br />So many have been without power & some without water too. At least 7 people I work with were without power. It was bad. When the siren sounded, we were in the closet.<br /> Last night's storm did a lot of damage where I live.<br /><br />Glad you & your family were safe!valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03506291993756087418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323550437588571742.post-84161772618913169282010-05-13T11:13:49.349-05:002010-05-13T11:13:49.349-05:00Carol, I am so glad that you are okay with all the...Carol, I am so glad that you are okay with all these nasty storms that has gone through Oklahoma these past few days! I live in Oklahoma City, which isn't real far from Norman, where the tornado hit. Our area where I live wasn't hit. I always dread when tornado season rolls around our way! I am hoping that the storms stay away for a while, but one can never tell.. I've been wondering where the sunshine is?? It's so cold and windy here today.. <br /><br />Take care now!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />~LynnLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03193306890900326906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323550437588571742.post-64975216527424630992010-05-13T01:06:41.741-05:002010-05-13T01:06:41.741-05:00I'm glad to hear you made it through okay.

We did and ended up in and out of the shelter twice. It is so sad to see all the devestation all over the news.

Darlene at darlene's days blog has given me some great information. My husband is at retirement age and we are thinking about moving to that area of the nation, but we have wondered how folk deal with the tornado's . Most people around here have basements and so I thought that would be a safe place. She told me about the shelters. I guess people just deal with the hazards of living in tornado alley ?!<br />I am so glad that you guys are safe and have a safe shelter. How long does the tornado season last?Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16836707727301350889noreply@blogger.com
