Hi guys! Wow...lots of catch-up reading to do! lol We have a tornado siren, but we've found out that the last couple times there was a tornado in the area, the siren didn't work. Hmmm... but it's not like anyone around here has a basement anyways. No where to go. So the siren is pretty pointless anyways...just scares the tar outta ya. lol

My brother sent me these photos I thought I'd share (since gessie doesn't mind...hey, has that water gone down yet?!)

This is the Marias Des Cygnes River (pronounced Mar-De-Zeen) in Ottawa, just 30 min North of us. This is now (still higher than it normally is). Try to look at the lamp lights on top of the bridge. Pretty, eh? Love that old fashioned look....
