    My boys place, we live 5 miles apart which was the longest 5 miles of my life. He is a good husband and father. Got his bunch in the cellar before it hit knew it was coming. He has been the model of inspiration to his wife and daughter. In my book it’s a positive outcome. Idk what I’m trying to say here other than we are all very fortunate

    All you and he can say is "Thank you, GOD. Again... I am sure you have uttered that phrase before and I could describe 5 or 6 times; after surviving/avoiding near death murmured it direct....

    Definitely a positive outcome, y'all are still on the rite side of the dirt and all that stuff that got destroyed is just stuff it can be replaced. I can't imagine that drive to your son's place, anyone that has kids and grandkids understands.

    If there’s a bow shop anywhere around I highly recommend them— took Critter I with me yesterday down to our’s and it’s owned by a couple Ol Vets and they fixed her up with something to shoot and cookies and about whatever… and you can park out back— Granny wouldn’t never think to look there and the pickup is concealed— it’s the perfect hideout
