A Day in History

Today is when Prince William and Kate Middleton got married. I watched it at 4am this morning on CNN. She was beautiful and he was charming. They even rode in the carriage that Princess Di and Charles rode in after they were married. The whole ceremony was splendid.
On a somber note, I blogged yesterday about the devastation in Alabama after the storms came through. The fatality tole has risen from 125 to over 200 now.
President Obama is here right now surveying the destruction. Fox6 news has been telecasting for the last two days on up to the minute news about this unfortunate event. Yesterday I went to a grocery store and bought about 50 dollars of water. I took it to a truck at the Bruno's store in Hoover,Alabama. They were asking people in this area to donate water.
They are also asking for money donations and volunteers to work in these devastated ares.
I was told that this has gone nationwide. And yes, it's all over the internet. Even when they had pre-ceremony events in London, England yesterday, the journalists there were talking about it. Every channel you go to, it's been broadcasted across the world.
I think this is good, so that people will be able to provide more  assistance.
I just think we all need to pray for those families affected by these storms and pray for those who lost their lives.
Alabama has been approved for Federal assistance. Because of the economy, this is surely needed to rebuild all of these areas and to assist the people financially. If you want to help, log onto facebook and find out what is needed. You can also log onto fox6's website.
We need all the help we can get.
