As far as I know, all Tennessee Luggers are ok [inc. me]
But boy, this has been a wild spring.
Weather forcasters have been giving tornado warnings with almost daily
regularity.
May 1 and 2 are the one year anniversaries of the big flood here in
Nashville.
Lots of folks here are 'biting their nails' as the main rivers are now
rising from all the recent rains.
But thank goodness it's not expected to be a repeat.
It's certainly a good time to spare a thought for all the hard hit folks of
the last few days.
