Ok - just updating to say my friend Christie has posted to say she is home and safe from Big Valley Jamboree - so I can quit checking my cell phone and face book and LP constantly to see if anyone has any news or if she has posted anything or whatever....I know she is ok and her family is ok :)
I can go to sleep now :)
And we have power too! Fortis got our power up and running at 4pm after it went off at 11pm last night - more about that tomorrow - but have to say our freezer is FAB because everything in it stayed FROZEN!!! Even the ice cubes!!!! Wow!!! How great is that??? 25c day today and no ac on in the house and the freezer stayed frozen with no power!
Anyway, Christie is home and safe, and we can flush the toilets again and have water and turn on lights and keep the house cool :)
It sounds as though things were very scary at BVJ though.....and my thoughts remain with those who were there and were hurt and injured or affected in any way.
