Such a nice day to grill out ... Too bad my grill got mangled by the tornado. .
.
.
It was attached to our house gas line, so it was like a balloon during the tornado ... flying up into the air, slammed into our house and ripped a gash into our siding before landing on the other side of our garden fence.
.
.
I know we are super lucky & blessed to be alive after that EF4 tore through our neighborhood ... with minimal damage to our house, fencing, & deck items. It's scary how close we were to that monster.
.
.
We tried to find whatever missiled into our roof but found nothing in the attic ... Thinking it tore into the roof and then got yanked back out.

May 8, 1964, an #EF4tornado blew through #myhometown, and directly over the sub I now live in, and - in the upper-right corner of the first photo - #mychildhoodhome. My dad always raved about the storm and how incredible it was, and how his house survived. Thank you @LakeStClairBoatingPictures for sharing these photos! I was so excited to spot this one, and so would my dad have been. #Fascinating #history and #secrets of #thegreatestlake!
