Gassville tornado

[Ptax]

The first photo is a picture a survivor standing in the hallway that sheltered her family. The lighted room in the background is her living room, sans a roof.

The second photograph, the b/w, is of an overturned HD motorcycle.

Number three is what is left of a local Mexican restaurant. I thought the flags paid tribute to their spirit and courage in such a disaster.

Four and five are of the same demo worker taking down part of a gas station.

It was quite a sight and reminded me of the destructive power of nature. I was surprised at how willing people were to talk about their experience. It was almost as if they needed to unload. I did my best to stay out of the way of the cleanup. (The tornado was on Feb. 5, 08 in Gassville, AR.)
