Tornado at Lac Sam

[dagibbs]

Just talked to my mom last night -- they'd been at the cottage for a while cleaning things up. Last week while I was down in Florida not being bothered by hurricanes, a tornado went through Lac Sam (where my parents cottage is). My mom was saying that there are 15 (or so) big trees down on our lot, including a couple that landed on the deck; that the power mast to the house was knocked down (but is now fixed); but that the cottage is otherwise ok.

Wow.

I'm wondering how much different it is going to look -- taking out that many trees WILL change things.

I'd be more than willing to come up with you for a day trip to the cottage to clear debris, chop wood, make sure that the lake is okay and the tables still useable for gaming. ;)

Thanks for the offer. I'll have to talk to my parents about what needs to be done, and stuff, but might be a possibility.

Talked to parents, much of the cleanup is already done. Just lots of splitting of firewood to do. I'm going to be up there next week, and will probably start on it.
