A tornado apparently touched down in my neighborhood about 2 pm today.  Lots of my neighbors have trees down and serious damage, and our power is out, but we are all fine and our house appears to be unscathed.  There's an enormous tree in the alley that shoved someone's garage all the way into the alley when it went down, taking out power lines as it went.  The kids won't be allowed to play in the back yard until the power company fixes that one.

  1. I thought of you when I saw the StarTrib’s slideshow — yikes! I hope they’re able to get the trees cleared quickly. Pics looks just like when my parents’ neighborhood was hit by a minor tornado 10 years ago. All the big cottonwoods were gone.

  2. I wondered if you were near the storm. Glad to hear you are okay!
