Storms in Michigan
We had a crazy weekend!
Friday afternoon a severe thunderstorm rolled through Michigan knocking out the power where Karl is employed. He spent part of his weekend trying to take care of power issues there at work.
On Saturday night another storm came through, this time knocking our power out. We decided to go stay with Mom and Dad Haynes till our power came back on.
On Sunday we emptied our fridge and freezer taking all the food over to Mom and Dad's. I took these pictures as we drove through town. It was like a disaster zone, with so many trees down and damage done. We got to Mom and Dad's place just as another storm came through knocking out their power. Mom and Dad have a generator, so Karl and his Dad soon got that hooked up.
On Monday evening we found out that our power was back on. We are now back at our place and thankful to be back to the familiar. Our Internet was just turned on a bit ago allowing me to make this post. Mom and Dad Haynes are still without power and are told it will not be back on till Thursday. (yuck!)

So glad you all made it thru the storms. It was bad here too as we had about 1/2 ” of hail on our back porch. Briana's corn in her garden was shredded and left flat on the ground. The power of God's creation is unfathomable. It sure is a good reminder to pray for those who have experienced worse in all these weather happenings.
Take care of each other.
