"If you live in OK, you need to have a storm shelter," exclaims Mary Peck, Sentinel, OK, as she meanders the path of tornadic destruction that has affected her entire life.

As you watch the charming guest of North Dakota's The Pfeiffer Sisters, you'll chuckle with Jackie and Janine as Mary describes "Blackie," her 2nd birthday gift; the history of Mary's mom's cotton picking life; and the noted fashion fabric of the 1950s--cotton feed sacks--along with the role they played in clothing those who lived on the Plains.
