Wow! You are one lucky sucker, to have missed that twister, by so little.
I'll add my "glad that you and family are all OK" also.

Any word on what number on the scale this twister was? I'm guessing F-3 or
F-4, from the looks of viewing a portion of the pictures. It could even go
F-5, I suppose.

I hope the whole country gets together, and sends lots of help your way.

Well, I'm sure you will be busy, for a good while. 100% occupancy at the
hotel will be a sure thing, for the foreseeable future, I guess.

Even though I lived in the Midwest (NW Ohio) for over 25 years, I never saw
anything like this in person. I'm only thankful, for that fact.
