Thanks for the good words everyone. We survived another tornado, again. Everyone here lost power and the heavy rains fill my basement a foot deep. No real damage to my property or trucks. Three blocks south of me got damaged pretty bad. A tall communication tower fell on the fire department and the whole town was locked down to prevent any looters from attacking the powerless businesses. I've never seen so many police cars from so many different cities helping out. We're all greatful for all the help and everyone's concerns.

Tony, I was there working Tuesday near where the tower had fell. After seeing the damage done I'm glad to hear you are ok and that there were no fatalites and no serious injuries.I hope things get back to normal soon but I see more weather is rolling in as I speak.
