Tornado!

We were out, like many others taking in the damage that the recent tornado in our county has caused, and I brought along my camera to snap a few photos. Pictures #4 and 5 were actually a mobile home. The metal frame of the home was about 30 feet from where the home once was, and the rest of it was scattered out in a nearby field.

There were quite a few barns down, and major damage to other homes. Thankfully there were no serious injuries reported. I truly believe that God had his hand on the people of this county Friday afternoon. A elderly man, that is a old friend of the family, lives right in the path that the tornado decided to take. You can see the destruction where it came down a hill, over some mobile homes, damaging, and destroying them. It then headed to the mans barn and flattened it, but seemed, by surveying the destruction, to just lift up right before hitting his home. Amazing.

To those of you who have damaged property, or have lost your homes, our prayers are with you.
