Ground View from Joplin

Mark George, an Iowa photo friend, when to Joplin recently and has shared some pictures. This is his message to me:
"Every year Kris's family has a reunion. We kept it at Joplin and planned on helping out. Saturday, 7,000 volunteers helped Joplin. More main roads were able to open up and get cleared of all debris. Tire punctures slowed the progress down. Curfew was lifted Friday night, but the Police stepped up on patrols. So Much Destruction.  Only took a few photos."

 Note: Sorry the postings have slowed... it's art show season, seven days a week, 12 to 14 hours in the lovely heat. If you have some photo endeavors you'd like to share, this is the place.
