3 WEEKS LATER - MOORE, OKLAHOMA

Hello All,

It has been a few weeks since Oklahoma was hit with those historically devastating tornadoes.  Seeing the damage firsthand has been something else.  My response team is finding cars in trees. Pieces of houses in trees.  Boats in trees.  Entire homes... Neighborhoods... wiped completely off the map.   It looks as if an enormous bomb was dropped on Oklahoma.

The survivors of the tornadoes are so brave.  They have the shirts on their back and nothing more, yet they continue to reach out to help others from dawn till dusk and beyond.  I'm surrounded by heroes.  

I really don't know what else to say.  I think it is going to take some time for me to understand this one...  Time to get back to work.

Oklahoma Strong
