Title: Are Our NC Brothers and Sisters OK ?
Post by: Justin B. on April 19, 2011, 12:25:41 PM

Been looking at the devastation in NC on the news and have been hoping all of our "family members" who live there are OK.  Raleigh is especially troubling since msbuck lives there...?

My brother went down to Cape Hatteras 2 days before the storm for the family spring school vacation.  He told me lots of places around were hit quite hard but surprisingly, the seaside turned out to be one of the safer places in the state.

The news has been showing a lot of destruction in the Raleigh area...

I have a close friend in Cary right beside Raleigh. And I hope Aïda and Graham are OK too. No news is good news or the lines are down?

Aïda was already having computer issues.  Could be why we are not hearing from her.

I would imagine there to be outages of all kinds but silence makes me a bit nervous...

Sorry guys, computer issues have kept me silent, nothing else.  We are all fine.  The tornadoes missed us by about 10 miles, although they went directly over where we used to work... it was really scary, for sure!  24 dead so far.  There were FOUR tornadoes on the ground all at once.  One just north of us and one just south.  These were incredible...staying on the ground for over 60 miles.  We're very lucky.

Thanks for all the concern!  You're true friends.   :)
