Waking up to find a tornado ripped through Atlanta was surreal. It tore right through downtown, hitting cabbagetown where our friend Gabrielle lives. She was who we first thought of when we saw how bad Cabbagetown was. We didn't have to look further than the AJC to find out. Caption said that everything was sucked out of her bedroom. So glad she is ok.
Another place came to mind...Oakland Cemetery. I wrote a lot of papers in graduate school about this place. I walked there frequently with my children as toddlers. Ben took his famous "different kind of hero tree" photo there. Sadly, it did not fare too well. Ben and I are going to go down when you can get through to it and see if his tree made it.
