Default Here are some pics from the recent Arkansas tornado

This tornado was really gnarly. I entered from the perspective that it couldn't be as bad as Moore, Ok last year, but I was pretty shocked. I worked from Monday through Thursday, taking Wednesday off to work the chainsaw for a little bit.

I wish this picture did the extent of the damage justic:

About 15 houses on this strip were rubble. You can't see it in the pic, but the trees are felled different directions on each side of the houses here, demonstrating a direct hit by the tornado.

Interesting to me, this is precisely where it started, the very first broken tree from the tornado is at my feet:


Almost every standing garage in this neighborhood had the garage door "popped-out" from the pressure drop.


This is not the most impressive damage, because there's something left, but it's probably the most gnarly single spot in Mayflower. I met the family living here who bought a safe-room through the rebate program I manage and everyone, including their pets, survived.

Come visit more often, preferably not accompanied by a disaster. Will says you owe him $20 for the plug change.

I probably owe him more, lol. Thanks again for all your help, drinking Mickey, and all the pistachios.
