Dear pals,
Lady had set aside a lot of time to visit you all on the weekend, but nature had other plans. A deadly storm rolled through our area. 3 peopled died in our region (at the time of this writing). We were left without power (as were hundreds of thousands of people) and they are saying it will be days before it is back.
We are safe. We have a generator that gives us the basics (water, some lights, some heat, fridge, freezer, internet) but so we don't need to go get gas too often we are conserving it.
Here are some pictures from our neighbourhood - not pictured here are the downed hydroplanes (Man saw them when getting a neighbour to help clear the road) and snapped hydro poles:

At the time of the storm Callie's people were in the city for her girls dance recital. They were in a place that kept power. With permission, we went to check on Callie. She was distressed so we brought her over for some food, water and cuddles. After about 3 hours, she asked to go home so Lady took her.
Phod was glad when Callie left!
Anyway, we are grateful we are safe and have the basics to survive. Will try and keep you posted on how things play out. We are making do!
