I jumped over trees and crawled under them. (Yes, I do realize that what I've been through is absolutely nothing compared to so many others, but I wanted to share). My grandmother's house is actually okay, just with lots of scattered debris in her yard. But there are so many fallen power lines and just gigantic messes everywhere. I really didn't think it would hit so many places so hard.
I can't even imagine the devastation there. I am glad to hear that your grandmother's house is okay.
