Safe

I hope all of the MN folks are safe and all of your friends and loved ones are accounted for after the bridge collapse.

And for those who missed the news: 35W bridge over Mississippi River collapses. This is so damned scary.

    This is so very sad and scary. But I’m glad you’re OK too, Jess.

    I don’t know anyone that was harmed. (So far, at least).

    Glad you are well.

    Scary indeed! One of my cousins would have normally been on it around that time, but had to stay at work late yesterday! Too close of a call! Yikes! Glad to hear you guys are fine!

    Glad to hear you are okay! Have several friends down in that area, trying to track them all down. Now I know that this was not the same as 9/11, but I was in Philly when the towers were hit and it felt a lot the same last night. All of our tv was preempted up here most of the night. Okay, need to skein that yarn for you now, I’m building a new yardage meter, looking forward to trying it out.

    I read about this in the Richmond Times-Dispatch while we were on vacation. So glad to know that you and yours are okay.
