    Not much new to update from Washington, Grandma A still hasn't been found. My son was part of the search party yesterday and has located the headboard from the bedroom right next to where she was sleeping. However after 6 more hours of digging they had to give up because it got dark.

    Papa is still in critical condition at Harbor View, he has opened his eyes a few times and all he asks is if "mom" has been found yet.

    Grandma Bobbie and Grandpa Bob are both now home at their sons home. Yesterday after Grandpa Bob got home from the hospital was the first time they have seen each other and my ex said it finally started to him them exactly what has happened and they both broke down.

    Verizon is still being the worst a company can be and standing their ground saying that without valid identification they cannot replace the lost phones. I know a cell phone seems like such a small thing given the gravity of the situation but that was the only form of communication they had, everybody has their numbers but no one can contact them. Fortunately my ex was able to break into their I-phone accounts and get all of their contacts so they at least have everyone's numbers.

    yeah, that's really safe. I know they don't shift or really move, but if you have to come to a stop quickly, you're gonna wish you at least had something on them. Especially when the DOT man shows up.

    Got woken up at 3:15 this morning by a bang and the crunch of fiberglass. The Swiftie next to me jumped the fifth wheel and smashed his cab extender. When I got up this morning the trailer is still here, but truck is gone again.

    I was just there last week. You sure you don't want to go load one of the pneumatics that I bought and haul it out here for me?

    Actually I should have 2 trucks sitting there to load them in the morning. A teal colored Pete and a grey Pete with maroon fenders both pulling extendable steps. They are sitting at the J there.
