in the crashing chaos
“Good God, woman, GET INSIDE.” -what my friend Don told me he thought to himself when I sent him this photo.
This end-of-the-world-looking cloud was right above my house and the rotation (a sign that maybe there’s a tornado) was clearly apparent. I’ve lived in tornado-prone areas for almost my whole life and this…this was scary.
There wasn’t a tornado, though, and my neighborhood didn’t even get too much rain. And also, I did go inside after I made this photo.
The title is from – you may know what I am going to say here – a Bruce Cockburn song, “Boundless.”

That was a scary day with all the tornado warnings and watches around here. My cousin got a really good photo of the funnel over their house too. 🙂

Fortunately, it sort of fizzled out shortly after this photo was made.

I’m not saying *I* saved us all from certain death or anything by taking the photo that robbed the storm of its power…just mentioning the timeline!!
