Storms are sneaky like that. <br /><br />I lived through the most powerful tornado to ever hit the US in overnight hours (up to that time) in Bossier City, LA on Dec. 3, 1978). I shall NEVER forget the images that are SEARED in my brain of the devastation left behind. <br /><br />I guess that...and knowing how even weak hurricanes spawn unexpected tornadoes...makes me "jumpy."<br /><br />Again...very glad y'all are safe and sound.

Honestly, I had to knock the lawn chair over myself for the picture.... I was pretty much shocked to see that tree down and the top of the one across the street ripped off.Sullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17503550225584659025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5676970200519482109.post-29299761509252536572011-08-29T18:07:37.421-04:002011-08-29T18:07:37.421-04:00Shit!

Everybody's trying to make out like it was "over-hype." I say not. That damn thing coulda killed you if it fell different.<br /><br />Glad you're okay, my friend. Really, really, grateful.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.com
