Larry, the tornado went 1 mile south of Baxter Springs. Picher is about 5 miles SW of Baxter. We had a lot of hail damage here in Baxter and also lots of windows blown out in several businesses. My oldest son was just coming home south of Baxter and he had to hustle to get ahead of it. He got hail damage and said it was a big tornado. So far, 15 comfirmed deaths in Okla. & Missouri. Here's a pic of a hailstone I picked up in my back yard.

Ray,
I am glad that you and your family are safe after the storms yesterday. I was burning brush left over from the ice storms last year and hail started dropping so, I made a fast b-line to the house. My prayers have gone up on behalf of those who lost their lives. Their families and friends need the Lord's help at this time and in the days to come.
In Jesus' Service,
Bro. David _________________ Hello to all my steel guitar playing friends. You are in my prayers as you travel to all the shows. I'll see you when I can. Rev. David L. Young / 2007 Martin D-41 Special, 1999 Tacoma DM-9, 2012 Bourgeois Cocobolo back and sides with an Adirondack Spruce top. |

Larry, a lot of papers and stuff from Picher was found around Sprinfield, Missouri. These household papers and effects were landing in people's yards around the Springfield area. Over at my farm, which is about 18 miles west of Springfield, I have found parts of insides of house walls. Panneling. |
