Broken Hearted for Oklahoma

   I am really not in the mood to post any pictures.  We were so sad to hear the news from home about the loss of life in today's tornado.  It is just surreal to be here and only hear bits and pieces of the story.  I have talked to Erin and she has updated me a few times, but it is so different being in a location where the focus is not on what has happened in Oklahoma.  The news here is not really covering the story much, though we have read some of the online coverage.  I was really shocked when Jessica and Zach showed me the reaction of what I'm sure is just a few Seattle natives - talking about how they hoped that the basketball stadium was destroyed.  Isn't it hard to believe that even a few people would focus on their feelings about the Supersonics leaving Seattle and not focus on the lives that were lost and the loss of property?
   On our way to Canada tomorrow.  We will update you from there.
