Many here in the North Shore of Massachusetts are celebrating a true blessing this morn, being thankful to have their lives in tact. Yesterday at 250am a HUGH explosion went off about 6 miles or so away from our house. ( I heard a weird noise and was like was I dreaming)The residence of Danvers were shook like an earthquake. Houses near the boom were leved. It was said that they were lucky to have been laying in bed b/c if standing they would of been hit with major glass. Our store had a bit of damage as well as the mall only 2 miles away. Reports as far as southern ME and NH felt the rock also. The New England home for the deaf has 40 displaced residence and many families are living with friends and realitives. I could say what a sad thing and go on and on about how "aweful" this is. I am going to make it a point to state that not ones life was lost in this tragdy and that minor injuries were fixed and sent home the very same day. It is being called a "Thanksgiving Miracle"..............SO as we give thanks today with our familes and friends let us remember all those who are apart from their loved ones and pray for the lives spared in such a horrible explosion. They may not have the "things" in their houses but to have life and love of others,,,,,,,,the blessing of health and well being is a wonderful thing.........God Bless and Happy Thanksgiving.......
