Good Morning CGs!

Bad day here. Yesterday afternoon my father took a very poor turn for the worse. We have him on comfort care at this point. My sister is on a flight now and we have family coming in. We only expect him to last a few more days. Really tough on my mom and really tough on me. I'll be up there later this morning to see him again.

You might see me on here, you might not for the next few days.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Matthew

Morning guys....So sorry to hear this Matt. I'm praying for you, your dad and your fammily.

Pretty start for today, upper 50's, sunny and no wind, yet. Here's what a Kansas tornado is really like. There was a HUGE outbreak just east of us (about 40-60 miles). This is some amazing video.

This tornado was on the ground for over an hour. Conditions are right for another round today.

Greetings! Looks like rain today - it was pretty delightful last night, other than being a little sticky. After seeing that tornado I'm not going to bitch about that.

So sorry to hear about your dad, Matt - much mojo to your family.

Have a good day, all!

Ok, the wind is picking up. I've got four 36" doors sanded after the first coat of finish and the second coat sprayed on, just waiting for it to dry. still cool, but they say it will get into the upper 80's today.

Mine got a rain bath last night for sure. We had flooding here and no joke that crap was deep. Some shots attached
Been sort of slow at the office, looking forward to brighter skies when I wake up on the beach in the morning.
Prayers for you and your family, Matt while you go through this with your dad.

Me too, Marcus. A guy I work for here (the doors I'm finishing are for apartments he is having built) is the meteorologist for the weather modification team (cloud seeders). Any time the weather gets bad he gets giddy. Yesterday was one of those days. Today he shows me some pictures of the tornado and I'm in awe of the detail and say they HAD to be close to the storm to show that kind of detail. He said they were taken from about 300 yards. "Tom, wouldn't you just love to be that close to one of those storms?" Me, "Hell no. I don't want to be any where near that close to a tornado." He tells me tomorrow (thursday) has all the signs of another round of storms....I guess we'll see.

That's a lot of water, Letty.
