Minnesota Weather
Last night some dangerous storms and tornadoes killed three people and severely damaged some small towns in Minnesota. Wadena lost their school. Mentor lost their gas station. Families lost their loved ones. For my own personal reasons, this affected me deeply. My heart goes out to the folks in these communities...

I'm glad to know that you're OK, Sabrina. We had plenty of thunder and lightening and fierce winds. No damage that I know of ~ of course, I haven't walked the fence line yet...
Like you, my heart goes out to those who have much more tragic stories to tell.
I agree, the news stories about the devastation are heartbreaking. I'm glad to hear that you fared well in the storms.
I heard about the terrible storms and tornadoes from Garrett, who got calls on Friday at Black Sheep Gathering. Rick heard about it separately from the news, and called the vet he used to work for in Perham to see if he was okay (he is). I used to work for the newspaper in Wadena, and Rick and I went to the horse races once at the fairgrounds there, now gone. Very sobering to me, and we haven't lived there for 20 years! I'm so thankful you and yours are okay, but it has to feel too close to home.
