Happy anniversary

 

I will be doing that within the next week or so; depending on my body.

 

Crazy day yesterday/ Had to go to hospital for c-scan. Got there just as it started to rain. People were scrambling and offices were closing. It turned out the county issued a tornado warning. That is without a tornado. I finally found the waiting room and went in. In a short time a nice lady came for me and did the test. Once done I headed out. I did stop long enough to look out the window. Then a security guy told me to go to a hallway or get out. Geeze, I stopped for maybe 15 seconds... Anyway I headed home. Rain stopped about halfway home (35 miles) and all was good. Did not see any damage or tree limbs down.

I do not agree with the county on issuing the warnings like they do. The reason is if one were to be sighted anywhere in the county, they put the entire county under a warning. It could be 60 miles east or NE of us which would mean it doesn't involve us. And when we think of the county lines, we are 4 miles from the west line and 4 miles from the south line. Every tornado I have seen in this area runs either straight east, NE, or SE. The communication lines don't run fast enough for us to receive any warnings in time so to me it is worthless. In addition, the way they give the warning for the county and they constantly give them, now many people just laugh at them. It's sort of like the guy who fakes that he is drowning and does this several times. Soon people stop paying attention to him.

OK. Rant over.
