F2 Tornado

This is our most beautiful tree taking a break from standing up.

It happened while I was at work and the sirens and weather men were going crazy. Get in your BASEMENT!! And for Gods Sake Try and hold your tree up! I finally noticed the tree when I wanted to get into my driveway, you can see that it is blocked.

The next day the Mount Vernon Street Dept. cleaned the tree up right away! So this is the only picture I could get. I am going to miss that side of the tree.

There were actually tornadoes in Poseyville, that were 6 miles wide. The weather center said that it was a F2. We only had lite damage.

HOLY CRAP MIKE! That poor tree. I can't believe Mt. Vernon cleaned it up for you, tree removal is pricey. Did you get into the basement at work? Do they HAVE a basement??!? I bet the whole day was pretty nuts.


thanks for finally posting again. I hope it doesn't take another tornado to do it again.

HOLY SHIT! I LOVED THAT TREE. Glad you weren't hurt. Again, amazing that the city removed it. Must be nice living in a small town where the city pays attention to you....

BTW - your house is really stinking cute. I love yellow.

MIKE, seriously, you commented on my last blog about 2 min. after it was posted. Are you not at work? Weird. By the way, I just edited it so you need to look again. It's better now.
