I am in Guntersville, AL between Huntsville & Birmingham. My area is totally destroyed. Destruction everywhere, homes gone or smashed to pieces. Hundreds of trees uprooted. Fourth day with no power & have been told it could be at least 10 days to 2 weeks before any power can be restored. All transformers have been smashed and power poles and lines are now floating in our 66,000 acre lake. Some sections with no water. There is no food, ice, and no gas to run generators in homes. We are fine, no physical damages, so that is the main thing! My son is in the seminary in Asbury, KY and he came here with some other students to help clean up our house & others. I'm using his portable laptop to write this. Going to be a long time until things are back together, that's for sure.
