Trees and power lines down in my midtown/Joslyn Castle neighborhood. I stashed my car in one of the Midtown Crossing garages and had to turn around multiple times due to blocked streets @OWHnews

Jo Olson never had a problem with falling in love when she was young. She just hated it when the boys got too serious.
But there was one boy she couldn't shake. And he was cute.
