Needlessly to say, things in Manhattan are in a bit of upheaval and chaos but thankfully we made it through the tornado safely. I can also honestly state that we are not meant to stay in the midwest...east coast, we'll be back!! Mike and I ended up packing up all 5 of the furry children and heading to the basement of the vet school, where many others also hung out with human and furry children. We are all the way down the hallway by the doors. For those of you not familiar with where we are, the vet school is off of Denison Ave., we live less than 1 mile northeast from the vet school and that street sign tells you how close we really were. I can now say I have survived a tornado and I can only pray long and hard that we are never that close again.
3 hours in the basement of the vet school
Thankfully there have been no injuries so far in Manhattan, that could only be by the grace of God. I can only imagine if spring semester was still in session and the population of Manhattan was at its max. There were many who lost their homes and businesses and our thoughts and prayers go out to them. Below are some other pictures from around Manhattan of the destruction.

This used to be the TruValue hardware store.
