Title: Mother Nature's Wrath . . . again, checking on our members
Post by: Bucky on June 06, 2010, 07:40:26 PM
Hi

Just checking to see how our members are doing with all the storms that have rolled across the midwest Saturday evening / Sunday morning.

The storms rolled through Central IL Saturday evening - packing quite a punch with many tornado touch downs.

In fact, just 3-1/2 miles down my road there was tornado damage to several barns and a roof ripped off a house.  Another house was moved off it's foundation and a barn across the street from this house had the tornado go right through the middle of it, collapsing both ends of the building into the middle.  There is lots of debris in the fields . . . siding, wood, insulation, etc.   Electric poles, snapped like toothpicks.

I know that towns in Michigan and Ohio suffered damage and loss of life too.

If our members in the path of these storms will just give us a shout out and let us know how you are.

Hugs,
Bucky

the pictures on the news are just devastating.

But even though I am in Ohio, the storms were not in my immediate area.  I just hope no one in our group is dealing with this.
