Still here.....pounded all around us.....but ok for now.........

| We're hanging in for now over in Marion, AR. Waiting (dreading) the squall line coming through but it looks like it might be easing up a little bit. I went home from work early today (I very rarely do that, I usually even work sick) - I knew this was going to get ugly. Glad I did - I work in SE Memphis where the ugliness came through. |
Glad to hear you're ok! Hope all is well with you my friend. Take care. |
Thanks C ! I went to work this morning, drove down Lamar and its a warzone right before Shelby Drive. It even tore a couple of the metal street lights down pole and all. I can't imagine what it looks like around the Hickory Hood Mall. |
| Was at work in Mt. Juliet when they hit last night. Wife called and said something was burning in town (Westmoreland) and she could HEAR it! Then found out it was the Columbia gas transfer station 8 miles away! I then went outside and could see the glow on the horizon from 35 miles away! All family in the RW network good to go, as with many others, narrow misses. God was watching! |

We didn't see anything we were hunkered down in the hall. Did get a bunch of debris from the Hickory Ridge Mall in the yard (13 miles away). I was hoping we would get a few Traveling Vice Lords too . Lucky for me I won't have to take my turn directing traffic down there.
