Wacky Weather

About a week and a half ago, we had a tornado come through our neck of the woods.  Luckily, we didn't have any major damage except that it took our fence and sent it flying through the air. We also had some minor roof damage.  Unfortunately, just right across the highway from where we live, it did some significant damage as you will see in the pictures below. 


This side of the fence actually got the good end of the deal and had the least amount of damage!




This side of the fence was taken out.  Part of the fence is laying on the ground...




...and the other part ended up here. Across the street.



Awww, can you see our poor BBQ grill in the empty lot?  If you read my last post, you will remember we had some birds living in that grill.  Sad. Sad. Situation.



I took this picture coming out of our addition.  The other side of the highway got hit pretty hard.

That's CRAZY Mel! I'm glad you are all ok. Might turn out to be a blessing through as we had roof damage one spring to ours and insurance paid for a whole new roof!
