Notes:

Yesterday southern Indiana was hit by a major Tornado (Henryville, a EF-4 to be precise). This morning
I received a call from Cousin Booker. He (Tee) was concerned that we here in Indianapolis, may have
been effected by the storm, and was not able to reach Sophie on the phone. I told him that the storm
was almost two hundred miles from here and all was well here. I had been outside earlier in the day
working on the construction of a cold frame for our raised bed garden, but the snow flurries kept me
from going back outside.

Tee told me about his five grandchildren including one at Southern University doing well and looking
forward to an internship with a major Oil company. I mentioned that my granddaughter is about to take
her first steps. We discussed the politics of the day, our ailments, and remembered our parents and
grandparents.

I tried calling Sophie, but still did not get an answer. I tried Sophie?s number again about five,
and not getting an answer, stopped by to see if she was ok. By the time I got out to her house, all
was well, she and Khail were in good spirits. We talked a while, and got caught up on things, but
right as I was about to leave, she mention the storm in Henryville, and how the Shell Station was
not hit by the storm. I had not idea what she was talking about, until she mentioned that Henryville
was on I65, and that is the place that Momma always wanted to stop for Ice Cream on our trips to Kenton.
