All good here Judy. We had a big wind about face mid afternoon that caused a few to scatter and bring in awnings etc but all up no damage that I am aware of. I had ro change some small rope on the road side to a little heavier but no problem.

I saw the news and the Tornado that was just down the road. We did see the black sky over in that direction though. A few of us were in the lake when the change came and we had to make a run for it so we didn't get too wet.

 Did I get that right. A few of you in the lake, it started to rain, so you all made a run for it so you wouldn't get wet...
