Yup that's right! It is Tornado season again! Every time I hear a tornado siren or see they have cut in on TV to track it for us I am just amazed! James thinks I am weird to sit and watch them track it, but I just think it is so interesting! Last night there was a tornado about 20 miles from us. They never really get too close to where we live so that is nice, but you just never know! I have been told by many people that we live too high up for it to really hit us. We live on a big hill (they call it a mtn here, but I definitely wouldn't call it that!) and supposedly tornadoes don't hit high- but I don't completely trust that!!
When we first moved here I woke up one night hearing a loud noise- I woke up James and asked if he heard the noise too- James opened the window and we figured out it was outside. I had never heard that noise before and had no clue what it was. James said "I think one of our neighbors house alarms is going off" So, us being the great neighbors that we are, we hopped back into bed! lol (We had just moved in and didn't really know anyone) The next morning I saw on the news that there were tornadoes during the night and those were the SIRENS going off!!! We should have turned on the TV to see if it was close to us and what we needed to do, but we had NO CLUE!! It's funny to us now, but it could have been bad!!
Here are a couple of pics from the tornado last night- (there was a little damage to a couple of houses but nothing too big)
Maybe my mom and Jen will get to experience a Tornado Siren while they are here next week! Ü

Tornado siren is fine, Tornado....not so fine!
I hope they get to experience it just to say they did as long as it's not close. My sister had to deal with those in Indiana. I hope your "mountain" will help keep them away :)
wow. sounds scary to me! I know what you mean t hough about having no clue about something you've never experienced living in a new region of hte country. We had that here with the propane . . . we'd never had propane before, so had no clue that you had to call the propane company to schedule a refill. We ran out of propane on Thanksgiving day. No heat, no hot water. D'oh!
