Tornadurz

I found two dead mice outside today. Good! Poison is working.

The baby rabbits have left their hole. They are pretty cute and will let you pick them up to pet them.

Was going to run on the trail today, but after driving for a bit decided that the mammatus clouds were kinda scary ( they mean bad shit is a brew). I was pretty sure the storm would stay north, but I decided not to take a chance. Especially after the wacky weather change the other day riding my bike. One minute sun, the next min cloudy with solid 30mph winds. Toughest 20 min ride for me eva!

Anyway, I ended up at the base gym. This gym is inside a converted airplane hanger. It has a soccer field, 2 basketball courts, 2 tennis courts, a .4 mile track around all of that and enough gym equipment to train a small army.

On my last lap of my run, they announced that everyone had to go to the bottom locker rooms. The tornado sirens were going off outside.

So I sat in that locker room for 50 min with 60 sweaty men and 1 baby. One young guy declared that no one was to go poop while we were all stuck in there. yah no shittin in here man! It was very hot and cramped in there.

I was glad I decided to bring my phone and put it in the locker. I was texting Liz back and forth about the storm. Lots of hail and a confirmed tornado about 20 miles south of us. Our area got hit with power outages, 3 in of rain in 30 min, and some pretty big trees split in half. I was very glad I played the conservative card this day.
