So relieved, David! I checked your address compared to the school that was levelled, and I am so glad you are safe. Thanks for checking in with us!

Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

I lived all along the Gulf and South Atlantic coasts before I move to Tennessee in the 90's, and we never had tornados, except for the when the hurricanes would spawn them like popcorn, and I missed most of them.  I've been through four near-misses (two of them WAY too near) since I've lived here, and what makes it even more scary (and I'm man enough to admit it) is they get them here at night.  I don't know why, but the idea of one of them coming at me in the dark is particularly unnerving.
 
The video I've seen from Moore is just heart-wrenching, but so glad you and yours were spared.

  • Are 3 Alembics enough? NO!

Wow, as Maxwell Smart would say, missed it by that much!  Glad to hear you, your's, and your Alembics all came out unscathed.  Disasters have a way of putting things in perspective.  My heart goes out to all the victims and their families.
