gull lake property: Love, Sacrifice and Bravery- Thank you! - 08/21/10 03:52 AM
     This video speaks of love, sacrifice and bravery- both for those men and women in our armed forces and those they leave behind. Everyday those serving in our armed forces risk their lives to bring peace and stability to other regions of the world and to ensure that ours is kept here in the USA. They have marketable skills, they have training and educational backgrounds- they are employable- they could pursue an easier job back home, but they sacrifice for you and for me.  It costs them, it costs their families and I am so grateful that they willing go … (3 comments)

gull lake property: Summer Weather and Tornado Safety - 07/23/09 03:27 AM

 This is what was left of our 70' trailer home which was inside a 80x170 indoor riding arena - also gone in Brainerd, MN.  We never found the appliances, furnace, etc -  but our blue toilet was found intact  several miles away. Fencing &  building in the background were put in after the storm. This tornado hit June 13, 2001 around 8:15 PM and we are still picking up the pieces and cutting up the trees.  It was very fast and very devastating and yet, while we did lose horses and possessions, no human lives were lost.  It certainly could … (4 comments)

gull lake property: Statue de la Liberte - 07/04/09 03:01 AM
 
Today for the first time since 9-11, you can go to the top of the Statue of Liberty.  "On that fateful day in 2001, she held her head high as she witnessed with her own eyes the horrors that took place just across from her watery home. Symbolism and sentimentality can be infinitely  applid to her place in it all." I have never been up in the Statue but hope to at some point. There are lots of others who want to enjoy the "view from the crown" and tickets are sold out until November. Carefully planned down to the … (6 comments)

June of 2001, twin twister sisters hit our home, horse stable and roofing business. Life is still in the "picking up the pieces" stage but no human lives were lost. Because I know from experience how quickly and how efficiently tornadoes can kill and destroy everything in its path I will continue posting about our experience to get the information out.
Tornadoes are nature’s most violent storms. Spawned from powerful thunderstorms, tornadoes can cause fatalities and devastate a neighborhood in seconds. A tornado appears as a rotating, funnel-shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with whirling winds that … (15 comments)

gull lake property: Just a Joke - 02/17/09 09:33 AM
I do not usually post jokes on my blog, but needed a little humor to share after a trying day at the office. squeezyboy: Flickr As a senior citizen was driving down the freeway, his car phone rang. Answering, he heard his wife's voice urgently warning him, "Herman, I just heard on the news that there's a car going the wrong way on 280 Interstate. Please be careful!" "It's not just one car," said Herman. "There are hundreds of them!" … (25 comments)
