You Minnesota people okay?

If I remember Peter F is from the area of the bridge collapse today and I know Bob Collins is. Do we have anyone else from that area? Hope everyone is okay.

That is a pretty scary site.

We're looking for folks from that area on the VAF site as well.

So far no word.

Hope all up there are OK.

I was emailing back and forth with Bob last night about cookout photos and he mentioned the collapse -- he's been busy covering it for MPR, so he's a-ok.

He guys it's been a tough week here in Minneapolis as we lost one family from work on the bridge. They were all in the car together.

It's a route many of us take every day and it still just doesn't seem real. The entire area looks like a movie set.

Thanks for checking in! All the RVer's from the MN wing seem to be accounted for.

Peter, I'm sure sorry to hear of the loss of that family. We will keep you guys in our prayers. It is good to hear from you. Let me know if there is anything you need that I can help with.

I appreciate that John!

Everyone is getting through it well and supporting those that were affected. If there is a silver lining it has really pulled our city together!
