Anyway. I am also very saddened this morning. Yesterday afternoon a local Metrolink train, a passenger commuter train here in Southern California, collided head on with a freight train here in the San Fernando Valley and there have been 18 total deaths confirmed at this point, including an off duty LAPD officer.
It was really a somber scene as they brought the officer's body out and a line of fire fighters and police officers were saluting. This is the worst train disaster in Los Angeles history. My thought and prayers go out to the victims and the families.
Also, my thoughts and prayers go out to the people in Texas, specifically Galveston and Houston as Hurricane Ike came ashore last night causing lots of damage and flooding. I hope there aren't too many deaths associated with this storm.
Enough with all the somber stuff. It can be very depressing can it not. I do hope that you will all have a safe and happy weekend. I do love and appreciate everyone in my life and that certainly includes you, all of my special online friends. Luv ya! TTFN
