Day 93, Saturday, April 3, 2010

I propped my camera on the back of the front

passenger seat, set the timer, and snapped

this picture!  I wanted to show Bonnie that
I was keeping comfy with the collage blanket

 she had made at Walmart for the family.

We were on our way home from the
University Hospital!

Today is the anniversary of the tornado

that hit Standale in 1956.  I remember that

day very well.  I was 11 years old, and

scared that my Mom, who was an RN,

would have to go help at the hospital.

It was my first memory of a tornado

warning, and we had to go to our

very dank and dark Michigan basement.

Mom didn't end up getting called in!
