Way too close for comfort! Praying for them, and everyone in the area.

 You can literally be across the street from a tornado and just get mud and trash.

I am fighting a bad cold/flu? Body aches kinda starting, and I just got sat down to watch the Bruins/Flyers hockey game and saw this. It’s kinda amazing to me how much you can like someone you’ve never met. I got no idea how to describe how happy I am that Fred and his Missus are well! Thank you to everyone that helped keep us posted!

I can't tell you how heartfelt all the posts above are to me. We got through the storm with no damage, but we lost power for 24 hours and internet/cable/land line phone until about 90 minutes ago. All that stuff is one the same fiber optic network so it all goes out at the same time. The storm was quite close to us, and we were in the basement for about 45 minutes....and we are a lot more lucky than many around us. Steven mentioned the 3 deaths at Indian Lake nearby, but there's a large private campground less than a mile from us that also got hit dead center. There are permanent residents there, and the place was practically wiped out; 8 people went to the hospital but no deaths. Many thanks to all for the prayers and wishes and kind thoughts...love you guys!

Missed you @Fred W. Hargis Jr.  Sure glad to hear you weathered the storm well.  I feel sorry for those who didn't.

Thankful to hear all is well @Fred W. Hargis Jr. I was pretty sure it was very close by. While not desirable, stuff can be replaced; lives cannot. Prayers for all those impacted. A relief to have you back with us.

Just one problem... Without Fred's daily reports, I now have NO idea when Spring is arriving!!

Yesterday I woke up to a light covering of snow and 30°. To top it off t was windy and didn't improve al day. Not any better at the moment, it's 27° this morning though we are supposed to be near 50 later...again with the friggin' wind. But after last Thursday's storms this will be a piece of cake, besides:

 

Glad to see that you are well.  That was a biggggg bump in the road last week.

You've been missed Fred!  Very happy that you made it through ok.
