My daughter-in-law and I skirted that Oklahoma mess on Monday when we were coming home from that area. Stopped in Nevada MO and St Jo Mo and spent some time- many large trees twisted and down. One huge tree we saw barely missed the house it was near. Another one missed most of the house but not the large porch. Sad to see. Sad for the homeowners too.
Roses were in full blown in northwestern Arkansas. Of course- it is just that being in south central Nebraska the roses are still to come. We have been having trouble in the day time getting very much into the 60s; That will change soon enough and we will be melting.
