    Craig and Lee
    Thanks for your concerns. We were really lucky, i think every one of our nieghbors has damage, but not us. We had family camping here this weekend... 6 campers,31 people and 9 dogs. We had moved to the garage and were watching the west, we saw what looked like a black wall from ground to sky about a half mile away that looked like it was coming staight at our house. We all scrambled to the basement ( still 31 people and 9 dogs [​IMG]) hunkered down and got lucky. One of the guests has a good video that I will share when he sends it. It looks as though everyone of our nieghbors has damage, especially to the south. We had 4 Dunkerton firefighters camping and they took of right after it went through so I heard all about Dunk and drove out there today, there are a lot of rural home that are completley gone, it was horible I can't imagine what is going on in Parkersburgh.
    thanks again fot thinking of us

    Oh I did think about borrowing/ buying a generator, but CFU rocks, those guys were out here in the hail and lightning had us up and running at about 11PM.

I cousins got hit bad in pakersburg, but have not seen pic yet, also I had a couple of more friends get leveled outside of new hartford. I spent the whole day digging thru piles of dry,wood,roof, trying to find photos and stuff for them.
