Sent from her dad’s cell phone…

Hi mom it’s Mira how are you doing today we are in ohio we just ate. We were in a big storme last night it was scary because we heard hospital cars.

My girls are visiting their Grandma in Ohio for the next few weeks. They had pretty hellish travel yesterday! Their dad works for an airline so he can fly them on standby for a very small fee. Thing is, what with airlines cutting flights and it being summer travel season, getting standby for a 3-4 person party is TOUGH. They missed out on two direct flights before they finally got on board a flight with a Chicago connection. Then it stormed en route to Columbus from Chicago. The girls were pretty frightened, they said – they were in the thunder and lightening as they made their descent. Ack! I don’t think that’s even happened to ME and I’ve flown lots.

The storm continued well after they landed all during their one hour drive to Grandma’s house (apparently a tornado also touched down in the Columbus area). They left their dad’s house in Phoenix around 9 am PST yesterday and arrived at their grandma’s at 2 am EST.

Ughhhh.

Anyway, all is well, but it made quite an impression on them…
