It's Friday night, and you know what that means..
It is time to Dare to Share!
I had planned on writing my post about Pigeon Forge, Tennessee yesterday, but the weather had other plans. If you watched the news today about all of the tornadoes in Ohio, you will understand why I was not able to be on the computer yesterday. The bad weather started soon after I got home from work. Tornadoes did land in the town where I grew up and in the neighboring towns, and there was some damage. We still have family and friends in the area, that we were trying to reach to see if they were okay. While there was some destruction, power outages, and injuries, those tornadoes were smaller than the ones that were to come about an hour later. The Lakeview/Indian Lake tornado was about an hour north of where we are. Today we heard that tornado was a F3. All people have been accounted for now, and three people did not make it through the storm. There were a lot of injuries, and a lot of the town was affected About 10 pm, another tornado hit about 30 minutes away from where we live. While where I live we did not go end up in a full tornado warning, we were under a severe thunderstorm warning and in the basement for a time. Finally about 11:30 all the storms had finally left the area, and it was time to get some sleep.
I will be posting my Pigeon Forge post this weekend. You can see a small preview in my photo. Does that large rubber ducky look familiar? It should, it is a famous chef who likes to drive a red convertible. :)
If you missed my post about the first day of our vacation to Gatlinburg you can read about it here.
Are you doing anything fun this weekend for St. Patrick's Day? I have a Find the Pot of Gold hunt in my Etsy Shop that kids can play. I love making and participating in Treasure Hunts.
Over on Instagram this week I have a reel where I give a review of the popular Dollar Tree Flower blocks. While I love how they look, I had an interesting time putting them together.
Now that you know what I have been up to this week, I would love to see what you have been up to. So let's get this party started. Link up and HAVE FUN!!
