Exciting Day

We in Southeastern Nebraska have been under storm warnings, watches and even tornado watch areas within our 25 mile area from Seward this evening. We received heavy rain and wind but no hail nor damaging wind. It has been an interesting day. 
We were up good time, showered and dressed after breakfast, reading the Lincoln paper and ready to watch Rev. James Keck's sermon from First Plymouth in Lincoln. He spoke on the meaning of the word, "Shalom". It is commonly interpreted as "Peace" but as it was used at the time of Jesus, it meant much more.
We were pleasantly surprised when Merlyn and Elaine Nielsen called and came to visit. They now own the 320 acre Plum Creek farm north of Seward where Elaine was born and grew up, so we had a lot to talk about and really enjoyed their visit. Soon after they left, Don and LaQuita McKibben stopped in. LaQuita is an ordained Methodist Minister and had given the Sunday afternoon message here at Brookdale on short notice. We also enjoyed their visit. Then we had a phone call from Verlon during the peak of our storm and Carolyn stopped by later to visit and fill our pill boxes. It all made for a pretty special day.
