Sorry to see all the damage in my old hometown, especially Falls Park. Very glad everyone is OK, as it could have been a lot worse.
It IS a mess! Several large trees...GONE in the Park. Several Homes have a great deal of damage. Nobody hurt though.
School has been closed for two days. You still are not allowed to drive in town. It's a GREAT community though, people are rallying around one another and taking care of each other.
The tornadoes over the last week or so have been wicked!
What amazed me is that for all the people I know in Pendleton, and all the video coverage I saw that had people in it, I saw no one that I knew in any of it.
That little town is growing by leaps and bounds....I used to go to the June Jamboree in Pendleton, and see several folks that I know...now days, I can walk through there and not see hardly anyone I know.....and the crowd is growing.
The population in 1972 was right at 2000, according to the sign under the city limit sign. The town has grown.
