My daughter lives there. She can give me an update when she is off work.

When I lived there I missed several tornadoes, then got caught in the Memorial Day Mingo Creek Flood in 1976. Exactly nine years to the day, my brother got caught in the second Memorial Day Mingo Creek flood.

Years ago, A friend of mine was driving truck from Tulsa to Siloam Springs on 412 when he looked in his rear view mirror and saw he was being followed by a tornado, the one that tore up the truck stops before they built the Cherokee (Now Hard Rock) Casino.

He decided THAT was enough and moved his family back to Los Angeles, CA.

While being from Kansas City with similar weather, I always used to say the Oklahoma was were you could stand in water and mud up to your ankles and have dust blowing in your face.
