Early May 1965 tornado outbreak
Tornado in May 1965 just missed my house. Not much cover and my parents saw it coming and fled. Then I got home and saw it 1/4th mile away. I took the best cover I could find and the noise made me think the 2nd story of the house was gone, but it was not. We lived on a lake, and my dad's 24 foot Criss Craft ,wood on the inside and outside, weighing more than a car was in the driveway 50 feet from the house on a trailer, he was refinishing it. People across the lake saw the boat going end over end and was thrown 200 feet out into the lake. Never forget that.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away--Wows happen!!!
