I'm glad for your sense of humor and that God was able to use you to help Mr. Gordon and his dog. AMAZING! Living just north of Dallas we are experiencing each storm as it goes through. SCARY! Didn't have any of this in Italy. <br />I am thanking the Lord that you are okay.

I was in a tornado when I was 5 years old. We had rushed home from Kiddieland and just made it through the door when a huge tree fell on our house. Tornados just terrify me! Gimme a good old earthquake any day! I'm so sorry your idyllic escape has been so brutilized. I'm so happy you're safe. xxDDonnaMundingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03189053739828220311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374772309100464204.post-36235287207701417822011-04-30T07:24:48.980-05:002011-04-30T07:24:48.980-05:00So glad that you are okay.

How scary!<br />We experienced the bad weather in Northeast LA on Monday night--wind was so strong. I thought everything would blow away, but thankfully we only had limbs blown down. On Tuesday night, we were in tornado warnings several times and had much stronger winds and lots of rain. More limbs down at my house. Many trees were blown down in my area and some structural damage. Thankfully no deaths or injuries. City north of me had a lot of wind damage and flooding. Many folks are still without electricity. My prayers are with all that have suffered losses.<br />Take care!<br />GlendaGlendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712930048438555460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374772309100464204.post-38227050923297427492011-04-29T10:59:52.019-05:002011-04-29T10:59:52.019-05:00oh my gosh, Joy...how horrible....but, you are rig...oh my gosh, Joy...how horrible....but, you are right, God had a plan for you....and I'm proud of you, my friend....crying, but proud....if you need anything, and i mean ANYTHING, you call me! <br /><br />DianeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7374772309100464204.post-67111879106847545172011-04-29T10:49:49.036-05:002011-04-29T10:49:49.036-05:00Oh my, I cant even imagine the horror of it all.

There was huge debris flying everywhere. I was very concerned about your area. My aunt lives in an assisted living facility in Wetumpka. I new Elmore County was getting hit. She is fine. I am so glad you all made it threw that storm. Suddenly after it was all gone, I realized even more so how precious life is. Have a good weekend.<br />Charlotte WilsonCharlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14176401771558497067noreply@blogger.com
