Glad to hear you only have yard work to clean up and no real devastation. I grew up in the midwest and remember many evenings spent in the basement, but always lucky to be avoided.

And all that devastation afterwards! We don't get tornados here, but we do get typhoons and floods. <br />I missed WOYWW too for the first time since I joined! But I didn't miss it because of anything bad- my family (16 of us) including Peggy went on a vacation to a remote place here in the Philippines called Caramoan. It was beautiful, we went island hopping. Glad you're OK!! Didn't know you counted cooking too as one of your many talents!

I love all the chimes I see on the porch; your yards look so loved and green! Things are starting to green up here but the rule is not to plant anything until after Mother's Day.<br /><br />It looks like you had a great birthday celebration with your friend.

I still have some pick up work to do, need to buy and new storage locker for the back porch and clean it up then I will be done. The tornado that hit Norman was rated an F1 and did a lot of messing up but relatively few injuries to speak of. It quit a block from my house and around here it just broke already damaged limbs and blew stuff around. Check out my metal flowers this week!
