Thanks so much for the Hurricane Elvis link! We arrive at State College on August 1. Will spend a day or two there and will drive straight down. I think we should be in Memphis by August 5.

Yeah, I'm fine. We didn't lose power at my place (which is wierd, since I'm only just around the corner from campus). We had some pretty big trees go down though, so there's still lots of cleaning up going on around here.

Being from Memphis, I guess I just count tornados as a normal part of life. The storms this year haven't been anything like last year, which even scared me a bit. You'll learn to get used to the familiar sound of sirens here!

By the way, if you've never heard about "Hurricane Elvis" which hit Memphis in 2003, you should look into it. Now THAT was a storm! It even merited its own entry on Wikipedia! Pictures here: http://www.mscema.org/index.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=5&page=1&sort=da

Hey,
Thanks for the warning, but don't think you can just casually slip "tornadoes" into a comment and expect me not to be rattled by it. Are you OK?

Hey, don't be worried about telling me anything! ...

Hey, don't be worried about telling me anything! I hope you guys find something you like. (Although, for real, I think you're going to hate not living in Midtown. ;-))

Fyi, we just had another rash of tornados and straight-line windstorms here, so a lot of people are without power and/or repairing damage to their homes. Just thought I'd tell you in case you find people harder to get in touch with than usual. Rhhodes was completely shut down for a few days, but is back up-and-running now.
