10 Minutes Sooner
« on: April 27, 2014, 07:46:06 PM »
Was coming home from Springfield,Mo. this afternoon and just missed being in the middle of the tornado that hit Baxter Springs,Ks today. 2 were killed by it just a few miles away in Quapaw ,Ok. Reportedly same tornado. Came up from a rain into a full blown tornado in just a few minutes so no one had any warning.
"There can be no divided allegiance here.  Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Definitely some serious weather today.  They are talking tornados for the next couple days.  Glad you made it through OK.
