We are getting some fun thunder storms today.  Leon said this morning after we (Steph & I went to her eye apt.) he was listening to the rain, he saw a flash of light and a huge crash.  He said the house shook!  He didn't know where it hit at first, until he was driving by Jim & Deenie's old house, he spotted a tree, that had 2 huge rips running down it,  When he went to check it out, he saw bark all over the ground about 20 feet around the tree, and at the base of the tree a big hole.   I will have to take a picture of it tomorrow.

We got mom's laundry done today, now tomorrow I will be able to get our laundry done and finish packing for the D.C.  We are all so excited to go.  Then in a blink it will be over. :(  until next year :).
