For memories sake (for some of us this is a once in a lifetime opportunity-hopefully :s), I wanted to also upload a few images I took of the recent wind which swept through our humble little town on December 1, 2011. The first three images are that of the wind which had been clocked at 102 mph at it's greatest. It was equal to a type II Hurricane. The rest of the images are of it's after effects. One picture, that of the firehouse, was undergoing construction, and luckily therefore did not cause the side of the building to collapse, but it sure put construction behind schedule, for it bent a lot of the bars. I will also try to take and upload more images of this devasting storm. It has also left many homeowners without trees, missing shingles, and businesses without signs. I believe it was also a great warning to us all, that we need to always be prepared for emergencies such as this, because we were without electricity, and heat for 48 hours.
