While looking for some pictures of a truck I used to have I found these. I didn't realize I still had these. I believe this was 4 years ago. A super bad tornado came through. I took pictures of everything in my friends house for insurance purposes. The ceilings weren't old dirt, that was were the tornado started lifting the roof up, and blew stuff out the air vents. They were home and upstairs when they heard it. Their oldest son was first down the steps and taking his time when the roof started coming up. The mother pushed all the kids down a flight of 15 stairs to get them to safety. They all escape with only bumps and bruises.

If you look in the driveway, you will see the beater I was driving at the time with the tire up on the roof. I got the spare tire stuck in power lines going to the house. I was the first person to get to the area. I was there before any rescue people. I had a pretty nasty bruise and bump on my head from pretty large hail hitting me.

The only funny part about any of it. Some friends had a garage right by the railroad tracks. They heard a horrible noise along with the train. They went outside to see the train draggin part of a house along with it!

For those having a rough time, look through the pictures and be thankful for what you have.
