Whoa!!! A tornado a mile away?! Holy cow!!! Now THAT doesn't sound like much fun AT ALL, John! But what's that old saying..."A miss is as good as a mile."?! These weather patterns this spring have been pretty weird to say the least. There was a tornado in Virginia just a few weeks ago ya know, and that's pretty unusual too I hear.

Anyway...nice hearing from ya, and I hope to hear that you're out there on your bike soon.(weather allowing, of course)





Yeah, I was parked under the awning at the gas station trying to get away from the hail when the tornado sirens went off. I found out later there was damage at the Walmart just a few blocks away. I had been getting an oil change and the attendant came running in and said a tornado had just hit Fort Collins and the storm was heading our way. It was shortly after that when all heck broke lose. About dark the rain turned into heavy snow. It looked like Christmas when I looked out this morning, but it's melting off fast.

Dwight, are you completely retired now? Must be nice. I'll probably still be licking envelopes in the home.
