So the sireens are blaring, I'm in my office fighting the email demons, what to do? In the past I might have been prone to take a peak out of my window and pronounce all clear. I know, I know, how stupid. The images of
Joplin and Reading are still fresh in my memory...so I head to our storm shelter, with
Bear in tow (he's at the bottom of the blog page). My cell rings, Lisa and the Boy are @
Wally World where they have herded all the patrons into the back room...no storm news available there. I give them the latest TV update before I headed to the shelter...I have a weather radio as well. Anxiety reigns. Bear sitting on my lap, happy as pie, although he seems a bit out of sorts because of the sireens and all...can a pie be happy?
All clear, they are released from WalMart, me back to the Beast. Sedalia didn't fare as well as we did.

Was in Jeff City yesterday attending a meeting @ our state govt. State went into "take cover" mode on Wed @ around 1:30PM due to multiple tornado threats and were not given all clear until 3PM, many confined to hall ways for the period. Can you say up close and personal?
