More About Tornados

I have had more comments on the blog I called "The Tornado" than anything I have written. I do remember another tornado that I thought I might comment on.
WE lived in a little house in Redkey, Indiana and my second son "Mark." was
about five years old as the time. We had a large backyard with a medium sized tree standing at the back of it (Which would be west of our house) by the alley. Late one evening I was standing at the back door and Mark was playing in the yard
when we notice a tornado appoaching from the southwest. Mark came to stand beside me in the door way. We both watched it approach and it never occured to me to be afraid. I suppose because I felt like know the "Master of the Wind."

Since then I have seen and heard of many tornados and I know the damage that
they can do. That one however came up to the tree in our back yard where it arose making a very large hoie in the top of it and then it went on over the top of our house and disappeared north east of us.

Now when we talk of that experience Mark explains it like this "I saw the tornado coming and I thought "Aren't we supoosed to be afraid?" but when I looked up at Momma I thought "No I guess not."
