LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Governor Granholm says she'll meet today with federal officials to plan for disaster aid President Bush has approved to aid recovery from June storms.


She and Federal Emergency Management Agency officials will coordinate aid for Allegan, Barry, Eaton, Ingham, Lake, Manistee, Mason, Missaukee, Osceola, Ottawa and Wexford counties.
The Lower Peninsula counties were hit by severe weather that killed at least eight people and blacked out more than 730,000 homes and businesses June 6th to 13th.


Granholm's office says aid can cover "repair, restoration, reconstruction, or replacement" of public facilities damaged or destroyed in the storms.

One of our friends from Florida is working on this disaster. N was asked if he wanted to go as well. He declined. Life comes full circle sometimes.
