I hope so. Too much sadness this year.

Dale Hollow seems to just be getting a nice rain right now, but it looks like the wind is picking up. Maybe the nest will hold like Raimis’s did. I was shocked that that one wasn’t in a gazillion pieces after the storm they had!

Dale Hollow didn’t get hit too badly tonight and the nest is just fine.

We weren’t so lucky. It wasn’t a direct hit but a tornado passed TOO CLOSE by and we have a mess. The only damage to the house is the tin was peeled off the roof over the front porch but that won’t affect the inside of the house. One large pecan tree is down and a smallish maple, and small branches are scattered everywhere. It’s a mess but we were lucky overall. That storm was horrendous!

Apparently a tree fell across the RR tracks because a train is sitting out there now. The tracks run alongside Hubby’s cousin’s farm next door and we can hear the engine running while they wait for the tracks to be cleared.

The freakiest thing was seeing blue lightning! I’ve seen pink, orange, and red before but never blue. It was bizarre.

I guess we’ll see just where the tornado tracked tomorrow when it’s light, and see how much damage there is in the surrounding area.
