Default The Tornado Didn't Take The Boat

The Two Tornados, that hit Springfield on Sunday the 12th, didn't take the Cig. The boat was sitting outside and was untouched. A Miracle considering, a block away, a house was missing its roof and the garage next to the boat had the door pushed in about 6inches. It has been total chaos since Sunday.

I had 3 work vans on their roofs when I showed-up to the damaged office. The office has roof problems and the glass is busted out of 3 out of 4 windows.

Madness

Big Andy

Glad to hear the Cig's Ok. Sorry about the rest. I'm in a pretty bad area for storms here in Indiana and it's pretty rough sitting around waiting till it's over to check on everything.
