My family lives in Iowa and thank goodness they are all okay but they had some bad storms! It wreaked havoc all over Cedar Rapids where they live and Nebraska, Des Moines, Chicago and Northern Illinois.where I have relatives also. They have no power and couldn't get cell phone service either for awhile....it's sporadic. Plus they don't have a chain saw so they have been sawing things by hand.
All over Cedar Rapids it's the same.....it seems no one was spared although some had damaged roofs and Amy and Tracy are waiting for the insurance adjuster to come inspect the roof. Tracy had just returned to work for his first day and they were on the way home when the storm hit. They made it inside and they all went to the basement. Amy said they could hear things hitting the house.
This is the top of a big pine tree in their front yard that got sheared off.
Amy said they were told not to expect power for a week so they are cooking outside with wood as there was a run on charcoal and ice but I think they have plenty of TP! PTL!
It rained here yesterday and this morning so I made a pot of ham and beans in the crock pot, made some chocolate chip cookies and did 2 loads of laundry. I'll be back tomorrow with some treasures I got in the mail today!
Happy Trails!!!
