Four Years Have Passed
It is hard to believe that 4 years ago around this time of the year, we had a tornado go through our town on a Sunday evening. It leveled a modular home, moved houses off their foundations and knocked down a lot of trees. I felt so bad for the people who had to clean all the mess. There were electrical lines down. It was very eerie to look at the apartments where we lived when we first got married and see that the roof was gone. We could actually see the refrigerator in one of the apartments. Thank the Lord no one was killed. It was a miracle. We didn’t even know it had happened since it was on the opposite end of town. We had a lot of wind while watching the movie Haunted Mansion. I remember being engrossed in the movie and being scared out of our wits when the bathroom door slammed shut. It happened during a scary part of the movie and made us all jump.

You were lucky to be on the other end of town. So close and yet so far away.

Sounds scary, I’ve never been through one, I can’t even imagine. Glad no one was hurt in that one.

Holy cow you were so lucky! I used to live above Chicago for about three years and when the sirens went off it was very scary! Never had one closer than about 10 miles, but still….

When I lived in Detroit as a kid, the sky would turn green, winds would pick up and the sirens went off. Under the kitchen table we went. It is scary and dangerous. Good thing you were far away from it.
