Dear Mom and Dad.

We've boarded up all the windows and barricaded ourselves in the kitchen. It means we can run out the garage if we need to. The food in the fridge and freezer has nearly all gone bad, but we've got enough in the cupboards to last us a while. I checked the car as well, and there's about half a tankfull of gas, which might get us far enough if we need to run I think? We're going to pack some of the food and some clothes and blankets and water into the trunk just in case.
