Salem Oregon Horse Property: December 2010

I had this day all planned out but then a tornado got in my way!

Seriously!  I had this day perfectly planned, I was going to make holiday cookies for a broker tour on Thursday, get caught up on a few blogs, update a few things on my website, exercise, follow up on some leads, you know, the everyday stuff but I have been behind the last few days. So, today was going to be my catch up day.  Wrong!

I went to the grocery store, came out, it had just rained, nothing unusual there.  Drove home, and the roads were white with what I thought was snow. Wrong again, it was hail, a lot of it!  We don't usually get that much here in Salem Oregon.

I called my husband to tell him about our exciting white roads and the auto accident around the corner.  He said there was a tornado that just blew through Aumsville Oregon (about 6 miles from our house).  Wow!  I get home, unload the groceries and turn on the news.  They are all talking about the tornado.  So I say to myself, "self, this is exciting!  We should blog about it!  Let's go get some pictures!

So I did.  They already had Main Street blocked off, so I went down a block, parked and walked.  They wouldn't allow even foot traffic on the hardest hit street, but I still got pictures of other damage.
