Yeah, We will be fine. The whole house has hard wood floors so we lost the dining area floor and the 2nd and 3rd bed room to water damage. The trees are a shame since most of them have been there for over a hundred years. I plan on cutting it and using it as fire wood for our fireplace.

I was at work at the hotel when it hit. My GM and another co-worker was with me when it first started to roll into town. We had a full house of Asian folk that didn't speak the best English. So the two other girls were freaking out and then the poor guests were going nuts made it for a great day.

Hey PIM,

Hope you made it through today's storms OK.

Reports tonight saying 15 dead in Tuscaloosa.

I think this pic is only a few blocks from the hotel PIM works at. Based on one of the pictures he posted it looks like he works at Microtel Inn. Based on the street signs it looks like this pic was taken at University and McFarland.



Here is the google map with his hotel marked. You can see the intersection is just to the NW.

edit: And another pic in that series from my last post mentioned 15th Street, which is the street the hotel is on. I really hope he's ok.
