Storm damage photos from Jacks


We went over William's moms and his dad's a few days after the storms to see if they were ok and to see if they needed any help. Marian was okay. She didn't have any storm damage and was able to buy everything she needed until the power returned.
William's dad had several trees down but compared to the damage all around them, it was minor. Here are a few pictures for James and Kyla so they can see the damage.




this tree was across their driveway and it had already been cleared by the time we arrived. Their area was being guarded by the National Guard and we had to go through a check point just to get on their road. Their neighbors along the river got the worst of it. I think they are still cleaning up over there and they still had no power or phone line the last time I talked to Judy.

After we left Jack's we rode into Guntersville and to Arab to see the damage. It was horrifying to see everything destroyed. Both areas were heavily hit. The only good thing we found that day was a guy standing on the side of the road with a sign...hot Dominoes Pizzas large $10.00. We pulled right in and got a few of those. They tasted sooooo good after eating hot dogs and snack foods for a couple of days. (all the others were eating steak but I'm not a Steak eater)
