Yeah, me too!  ;D

Wish I could be there this year. I will try for next year, though! Be careful with the tornado's on the loose!

We are alive.  No damage at our house.
No Power.  May not have power for a few more days.
Will not make it to the Classic.

Pray for my neighbors.  Several did not make it.

Hi,

Just went through a section of Georgia near Warm Springs...home after home demolished trees snapped off at strange heights...sometimes just two feet off the ground...sometimes up near the top...just thrown...power lines down everywhere, power companies out trying to put it back together, police looking for the missing...

Sure is nice to be alive and well in this world.  Would love to be there and hope everyone has a great time!

I rolled in about 5:30 Sunday morning.
If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?

Back at work today.
Power came on at the house yesterday around 6:00 PM.
Phone lines are all down. Dont know when they will be working.
Lots of people still with out power.  My company sent two electric crews to help.

Where we live, in Lawrence County Alabama, there were more than one thousend homes destroyed.
The last account I heard was that 15 people in Lawrence County were killed. Some I knew very well.
I have seen tornado damage before...  But nothing like this.

Been running my chainsaw for the last two days.  Thousands and thousands of people helping out.
The clean up has just started.

We went down through Alabama and was surprised at the amount of damage you could see just from the highway.  Prayers are with all affected!  I'm extending my vacation to spend time with family, but another great year at the Classic.  Thanks to all for a good time! See you all next year   ;D
