You're an amazing story teller, Jay.


Agreed. I'm also glad to hear that you and yours are safe.
Out here in Kah-lee-for-nyuh we don't get much in the way of
twisters. I mean, they do happen, but they're not much more
than oversized whirlwinds. Some trees down and that's about it.


Living out in Sacramento, I'd also agree. the tornadoes here
are, compared to the midwest, laughable. Don't get me wrong, they are
just as serious for people here, but nothing compared to back in the
Midwest.

You know, I thought to myself the other day after seeing some
of the tornado damage in the Midwest, that I think I'd rather
deal with the earthquakes here than a bunch of supercells out
there.


Jay's story actually has me longing for them again! After going
through a number of them in Omaha all of my 20something years, then
moving, it actually has me missing those. Outside the fact that
everyone out here I've talked to about tornadoes thinks they are just
tall tales!

If only they knew...

BL.
