So, they are having more tornado outbreaks in the Midwest and southern plains.  I am so glad I don’t live there.  I have friends and family that live there and they have not yet been affected by these terrible storms.

I have a close friend whose family has been affected by the recent tornadoes in Iowa.  The town his son lives in was 75% wiped out this weekend by a killer storm.  People who he knew that had lived in their homes for 30 years or more lost everything.

Nature is a strange thing.  It can be so beautiful, peaceful and wonderful, then it turns around and becomes mean, violent and relentless.  I wish only the best to those who lost their homes.  But remember, things can be replaced, lives cannot.  No lives were lost where this friend’s relatives live, just belongings.  I know that you can’t ever get back the family pictures and memorabilia and that part hurts the most I guess.
