Hiya folks…! Sorry for the rather off-topic post, but I don’t have access to my email account and need to let folks know I’ll be out of touch for a wee bit! The family and I were on the road between St. Louis and Nashville on Sunday and were caught up in the horrible swarm of tornados that struck the area. To make a long terrifying story short, the family and I are OK but our van is in a terrible state. Looks like we’ll be stranded in Lebabon TN. for another week while the ol’ caravan get’s repaired.
You are having a lot of bad karma with weather. Glad to hear all are well, but sorry to hear of your predicament. Hopefully this spring will present ‘broad sunlit uplands’ for you.
There were a lot of warnings that day. I got ready to run to the basement just in case and I was so glad I wasn’t on the road. I was shocked when I heard how hard Tennesee got hit. That must have been a very terrible experience. Glad you are safe even if your car is not sound.
We’re fine…it all skirted south by 7 -10 miles and north of us but most of the deaths were west. Every springtime Nashville metro becomes tornado alley.
I have driven through the Nasville area and surrounding country numerous times during the spring and have witnessed these storms first hand. Awesome and terrifying.
