Weekend Thoughts

* I had to check the calandar over and over today to make sure it was really mid-November. Our high temperature today was 86! As a native Nebraskan this certainly is out of the ordinary for me. But in recent talks with family and friends, sounds like things have been quite warm up north as well.

* Had a great time today at the Southern Farm Bureau PGA golf tournament at Annandale today. I did break a sweat with it being so warm, but the coloring in the trees was beautiful! The course was in great shape and the volunteers did a fantastic job to make it an enjoyable event. If you enjoy golf and get the opportunity to watch a professional event, I would highly recommend going. The quality of golf was impressive and, as always, made me realize that I am not good at golf -- and probably never will be! But that won't stop me from playing.

* Unfortunately an F3 tornado hit Evansville, Indiana overnight last night causing 19 deaths and over 200 injuries. As we get into our secondary severe weather season, this will serve as a good reminder that we need to be prepared. Make sure to get your first aid kits ready with flashlights and batteries! Also, we highly recommend getting a weather radio. Weather radios will alert you when a warning is issued for your area and can be a lifesaver! For more information on weather radios you can email me at renny.vandewege@wtok.com. We also feature a product called Wireless Weather. Warnings will be delivered to your cell phone. You can sign up for that product at www.wtok.com
