We're Fine

You may or may not have heard about the huge explosions here in Toronto this weekend. It's dominating the news here, with good reason as it has affected just about everyone in the city in some way. We live between six and seven kilometres away from the propane facility and the explosions were loud enough to wake us both up. I had actually been dreaming that I was in a war zone being shelled, and then woke up to hear what I thought at the time was some really weird thunder that lasted a good 20 minutes. It wasn't until we arrived at church and practically no one was there that we found out about the explosions and put two and two together. They shut down the 401 and the subway system in that area (which stranded us at church for a while until we could flag down a cab), and evacuated the whole neighbourhood. Scary stuff!
