You have to keep up with the GWF and the CEFSG every day or you will soon find you are too far behind catch up! Had just returned from a hard days work doing volunteer clean-up after the Tornado hit Milton on Thursday evening. What a mess! On days like this, everyone loves the guy with a pick-up truck and chain saw. Some areas looked a bit like the fields around Passchendaele, except there was not as much mud. The tree "sticks" were very similar and it looked like they had been hit by shrapnel.

Makes one appreciative of what it must have been like to have gone through that day-after-day for months in the trenches.
