back in the sixties... and we had tornadoes on both sides of the highway.

We didn't stop.

Years later a tornado passed right over our house and touched down about a mile east of us... and yes, they really do sound like a train.

Good luck back in Eureka... and sorry to hear about your sister.

stay safe tonight.
