That was, right before that was when a tree fell on our house and then we lost power. So from then on it was just insane. We all decided to just snuggle up and go to sleep and hope for the best. The winds were really loud and right before I went to sleep, my final text came through from my friend in Texas saying that the theater was destroyed. So that was a really hard thing to swallow right before trying to go to sleep.”Various of damaged theater4. Various of damaged mobile homes5.
