2 Weeks ago Alabama was devastated by one of the deadliest tornadoes in US history. We were extremely lucky to have been missed by 15 miles or so by an EF-5 tornado that ripped through our county. The worst we had was no power for 5 days and had to clean out our entire refrigerator. Our entire county (and much of north Alabama) was without power for several days. It was kind of eerie. So, we packed our bags and headed to the beach with our dear friends, the Reeds.
Our Wednesday afternoon looked much like this. We spent alot of time in the bathtub. Sirens started at 6:00am and did not stop until 6:00pm. It was a long day to say the least.
With no power for days, we decided that we would leave town for a few days and evacuated to the beach. Does not happen to often that we, from N.Alabama, evacuate to the beach.
We truly are counting our blessings that we were spared any storm damage. There are thousands of people that have had their lives turned upside down. Please keep the state of Alabama in your prayers as the people continue to rebuild their lives.
