Hey all, well it's good to be back on line after this past week.  We had numerus tonados in Alabama this week and where I live we took a big hit.  my father inlaw lost a shed (really we can't find it) and sister inlaw lost her house.  These are just a few pictures of the event.

TestRocket is OK and I did here from GusRobin so were all good, just missed Nepa's visit to Huntsville becuase of bad weather

Our road with power lines down

A very old pecan tree in my father inlaws yard

Contents or whats left of the shed

My 49 Caddy took it on the front noise.  :'(

This car was tossed 150 yards off the road by the tornado

A root of a 30 year old pecan tree that was uprooted by the storm.

Live, ride, eat well and thank God!

I glad to hear the you, your family, Gus and Testrocket are all safe. I'm in NY, and there are a couple of tornadoes that touch down each year within a 50 mile radius of me. When I hear about them, they frighten the h*ll out of me, but none have been as devastating as the ones that occur in the south and west.

Glad everyone is ok. Fences, cars, trees, sheds can be replaced. Good friends cant.

We will hook up sometime again.

Tommie - forget the shed, did the Bradley and the TBEs make it ok?

Don't curse the storm, learn to dance in the rain.

Gus I believe they were in the garage in the first picture. So they are good to go. You do realize that was the first thing he wanted to know after the storms. "Where are my cookers and are they OK?"

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

TMB, Glad you and Kimmie and the others are OK.  Hate to hear your '49 took it though.

You can rebuild a shed or a car but family and friends ya cant.
