Monday, October 16; 5:20pm EST - WE MADE IT!!!!! We all made it in one piece (me and my Fag pack....can you believe it?) With absolutly no problems....with my car that is. When we were leaving Mobile, we drove thru a tornado!! The sky was really dark with a greenish tint (typical for tornado) and then on the radio come the "Emergency Broadcast" saying that there was a tornado warning for Jackson County (which is what we were driving thru) and a tornado had touched down traveling North at 50 miles an hour (we were heading West on I-10). He proceeded to say, "If you are driving please pull over and find the nearest ditch and lay in it face down with your hands over your head" and "please head to the center most part of your house and seek shelter....." I was looking to my right and my left trying to find the stupid thing!!!! Then the sky lightened up (still raining) and we drove for another 15 minutes when he came on the radio again saying the same thing. At this point, the tornado had already reached another county and slowed down to 25 miles per hour. What a way to start off the morning!!!
I am home now and my Daddy is really glad to see me. I am leaving now to go see my brother Buddy and my sister-in-law Sonja. There's no place like home!!!!
