Twisted Sisters Outrun Tornado

Here is how this day started: Dave and I were playing with Mikey when I got a call from Tammy. Now, you must understand that Tammy has been working in Oklahoma building bridges for the past 8-9 months and I had not seen her since she left. She decided we were going for a ride, rain or shine and yes, it was looking like it was going to storm. When Tammy, Kandie, and Clancey got to my house, it was a tornado watch. We picked Tanya up on the way to the Amvets, our starting destination. When we left Amvets in Cedar Falls, it was upgraded to a warning but it was northwest northeast of us. As we headed out, someone hollered that a tornado touched down north of New Hartford (NW). We headed south!


My pictures are kind of mixed up so here is the route: Cedar Falls Amvets to Hudson to Dike to New Hartford, back to Amvets, then home. You will see by our pictures we had a great deal of fun. We survived the tornado and didn't get one drop of rain!

Clancy left us in New Hartford, we dropped Tanya home, and then my house.
