The Aftermath

Following are pictures taken during the tornado the other night. The first five pictures are of a warehouse about 8 miles from my house. Our dear friends, Alan and Carrie, parent's (Carrie's mom and dad) live across the street from this warehouse. They were fine just shook up. Trees were down in their yard. A large tree was across their driveway so they were not able to leave. Alan and Carrie's daughter, Evie, who is Kara's age, was staying with them at the time. Joel and Alan went to get Evie and the police would not let them down that part of the street. The police went to the M's house and picked up Evie and drove her to Joel and Alan. She thought it was pretty cool riding in the back of a police car. She also told her grandparents that God was in the house with them and that's why they were saved. Out of the mouth of babes.













This is our local hospital. We live about 6 miles from the hospital. The area around here suffered a lot of damage. No injuries though.



This is the Walgreens that is close to the warehouse that was damaged.

We are from NE Al, about an hour from Jacksonville. The pics from the tornado damage are horrific. We had an F4 hit near our house, there was one fatality.
