Tornado

So a tornado hit camp. We are alive and well, thanks in full part to the big man upstairs. We are staying at my in-laws as our power and water are off and will be for, reportedly, 2-3 days. There are trees fallen all over and somehow, the trees fell AWAY from all of the buildings. 80 kids, 20ish counselors and one 5 person family okay. 1 chocolate lab rattled but safe. We are blessed.

Yikes.

I swear every single time I look at the radar this summer to see what new storm is headed our way, Iowa is being crossed by lots of yellow and red stuff.

So glad you are all ok. How scary.
