Guest guest Posted April 27, 2002 Report Share Posted April 27, 2002 Jim It's the first thing I saw when I opened the paper this morning and my thoughts went straight to you and Peg. Hope all is well by now and damage isn't too bad. An earthquake there, a tornado here, a flood or 2 thrown in, we all take a deep breath and count the tops of our children's and grandchildren's heads and the rest of our blessings and go on thankful for each day. Glad you are both ok Sally in KS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
