Her daughter who teaches for Kettering Schools is off because the schools are shut down because of power being out.Jack and Joannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11778598668660834055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084623774204456321.post-56917469253025209602008-09-16T08:23:00.000-04:002008-09-16T08:23:00.000-04:00Joann: Very nice photos of some fun groups and a g...Joann: Very nice photos of some fun groups and a great looking show.<BR/>We had the high winds and 680,000 people are without power.

Yesterday Dayton was declared off limits. Most of the schools are still closed. Many factories and other businesses are closed. The roads are slowly being opened as we drove to Wal-Mart yesterday on I-70 at Englewood. Over 300,000 in this area are without power and power lines and being dragged down to the ground and poles are snapped by the weight of trees laying on them. My neighbor has three trees laying on the power line. The pole is snapped and I talked to him yesterday and he said the power company has been told but they are so far behind they didn't know when they would get here.<BR/><BR/>Half of the shopping center here is closed because there is no power. The other half is open.<BR/><BR/>Our library lost its roof and I don't know about book damage.<BR/><BR/>My neighbors across the street are still without power. We gave the widow and her son dinner yesterday or shared it with them. They were grateful for that.<BR/><BR/>It is a grand mess that is taking a long time to get better and the power company doesn't seem to know how much longer things will be like this.<BR/><BR/>I like your photos of the event and the Lincoln fellow is out of focus when enlarged so I was not able to make him out. I don't think he is the one I have seen but may be.<BR/><BR/>The thing about pigs running loose was common. I have that one photo of a lady I knew who was a young girl feeding pigs in my hometown, Gordon. It was for sanitary reasons there as everyone had privies and sometimes the people staggering out of bars couldn't make it and did their business in the streets.<BR/><BR/>Patty and I worked all day yesterday cleaning up trash and limbs. Our cherry tree was ground up by the city so that is gone now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
