Hi Everyone&#33;<br /><br />The weather is heating up here in Mpls.  Summer is finally here, along with the storms.  Last Friday we were watching a DVD downstairs, and my aunt called and said there was a tornado headed right for us...we checked it out on the TV weather map, and by then the sirens were going off.  I hardly had time to get scared, and it passed right by us without touching down, thank heavens.  No damage.  I&#39;m starting to feel better today, except for this darn cough.  I get a tickle and then cough so much that I can&#39;t breath.  I hadn&#39;t planned on seeing the doctor, but I suppose that I had  better, just to rule out pnuemonia or bronchitis.<br /><br />Thanks for all the good wishes, everyone&#33;<br /><br />Andrea...so glad that Mickie is able to be home.<br /><br />Kevin...yes, Minnesota is definitlely a fisherman&#39;s paradise.
