We were up in Tulsa to surprise Dad for his birhtday. We drove up in rain sent to us by the weather on the coast. We drove home in it. Dur to some mixed communication, we left about an hour later than we we thinking we would. When we got to Okmulgee, we were glad we came through late. The closed down Highway 75 through town after "10.5 inches of rain fell in about four hours." I kept exclaiming and pointing and the parking lots and fields that we filled.
Here's a link to an article and a slideshow.

Oh man, it rained and rained and rained! That silly Erin got stronger when it crossed the border. Ever hear of a tropical storm getting stonger over land? Crazy.
I have been thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. I'm glad you are safe and sound.
Glad you made it home safely.
Do you think our friends need money to fix their houses? How could we get it safely to them?? I really do think you need to update the little quote under your title on your home page. Love, Mom
