[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4256651, member: 5412"] That was during the Great Plains Tornado Outbreak in May of 1955. The city of Blackwell was almost blown off the map. The town knew a tornado was coming but didn’t realize it was coming from the opposite direction that tornadoes typically travel. My Uncle and his sister were pulled out of the top story of their home and deposited into a plowed wheat field a quarter mile away. He said they looked like pin cushions with all the wood splinters sticking out of them. My first dog Skeeter, get her rear leg broken that night. Vet set it, put a cast on it and she survived 16 years. I was 4 and ran over her on my trycycle according to my parents. [/QUOTE]
