For those who don't know I live in north Alabama. We made it through all the storms but a friend of mine was killed. I still have no power and am using my phone for this.

That's horrible! It's always a shock and terrible day when someone you know passes on; most especially when they're still young. Not that someone who passes on at ninety is any easier but in some ways it's a bit more accepted.

I hope that you have power again soon. Stay safe!

Hey Rodney, I am so glad to hear from you. I saw the terrible pics on TV and since I knew you live there, I was worried. I was PMing you several times on MSN but I already figrued you wouldn't have the chance to check in there.

So sorry for your loss!!

Hope to hear from you soon!

*hugs*

no power yet.....day three on that. I've been frying hotdogs and fish over an outdoor gas grill and heating water over a campfire for other things. Multi tornados hit our hydro eletric plant and our nuclear reactor. It snapped all the metal poles that shipped out the power. One tornado hit our national weather radar tower and ripped the whole radar off the tower. So even if you had power no one could see the storm on tv or radio. Just now been able to get some gas for my car...i was below empty. Still using my phone for all of this. Thanks for all the good wishes.
