What We are Thankful for at Christmas Theme

[J A Byrdlip]

Perhaps an un-judged theme for Christmas in lieu of the damage done by a Tornado in Port Orchard, Wa on Tuesday.

Why this theme? I guess that I am in a deep funk over the tornado that touched down in Port Orchard, Wa on Tuesday. Had it not been for our older grandson having a doctors appointment at 2pm PST on Tuesday, so we had no puppy sitter, my wife and I would have been in the Wal-Mart parking lot nearest where the damage was done at the time the twister went thru. We parked in that area yesterday, talked to employees that were at work the day before and left with a feeling of how lucky we were that fate stepped in for us, how sad it is for those that lost everything, down to mild damage, at Christmas time (no injuries or deaths reported, but large trees divided a house and on roof completely gone).

Hope those you mention who were not as lucky as you, are recovering.
