Had an e-mail from a friend and she told me she was concerned because the weather report showed a possible Tornado to come by them today.  She lives in Texas.
This brought back memories of Tornados my family and I have lived through. I have already told you about the one that hit south St. Petersburg but I have not told you about the one that came through the Ohio Valley when I was in my 20s.Â
First let me tell you it was common knowledge that a Tornado could never hit my town because we lived in a valley surrounded with hills.Â
Well, that theory got shot down one day when my Mom and I were shopping and decided to stop in our one Department Store for lunch because it looked like rain. We just got seated and served in the lunch room when we heard a crash.  A Tornado came over the hills down the main street and broke out all the windows in the front of this department store.Â
There were no serious injuries but it taught us one thing for sure.  NEVER SAY NEVER.

Love and prayers from here to there
