Mike I'm not so lucky as to have a tornado come along and blow my place down so I can get a new one.

Nope, even though I live in the middle of tornado alley they always seem to go around me.

Roof did get a good rinsing off with the like 8 inches of rain that dumped on it in the last day and half. Good thing my foundry area is on high ground I need to fire it up tomorrow and see about melting some cast iron, or to see if I still know how to.

the big blue circle is where the tornados were at yesterday, the little red circle is where my cave is at.

Way too close for comfort. Hope you have a storm shelter David.

That 8" of rain is more than we have been having in an entire year around here lately.

I guess the only death from these tornados was someone in a shelter that filled with water and they drown. ??

No worse than lying in a hospital bed stuck full of tubes. That's the fate of most Americans nowadays. (Don't ever let them get you in an ambulance.)
