That was interesting. Plowed through indianapolis and Kokomo, Tore out some huge trees and even blew down a historick brick building that was being renovated.

I'll be assessing my home for damage this evening after work....

5 / 10 of a mile is too close to the house in a house.

Lost the weather head to the electric meter when a tree fell on the incoming power line
but no other damage!

The steel plant faired a lot worse.

My next door neighbor 3 /10 of a mile away lost his barn roof and the winds
completely collapsed his garage.

Keep the prayers coming, y'all. I am located between the Washington and Gifford, Illinois communities.....I can't begin to explain the damage. I've spent the last two weeks doing nothing but collecting donations of food a clothing for the victims. It's going to take years for these towns to recover. Thanks to everyone sending happy thoughts and good mojo!

Oh Doug, please don't thank me! There are many of us doing our best to help here and there. I just think, that if I were in that situation, that someone would help me. My heart goes out to these people..... they're going through a lot.
