We are working in a hayfield about a mile east of town today. It was at the end of the tornados path, where a lot of debris fell down in the fields. We found a lot of fiberglass insulation and shingles throughout the pasture. (Good work for the cows...) We also found several personal items mixed in to make it interesting. Pictures, game pieces, a twenty dollar bill, old checks.
We drove 3 miles through the path of the tornado on the way out of town. There were excavators, bulldozers,and dump trucks everywhere.
In much of the areas, they were pretty much pulling down any structure that was still left standing. Unbelievable the amount of devastation.
An elderly lady whose home at ground zero, 2 blocks east of the high school showed up at church asking if anyone could go with her to her house because looters have previously been there before.
She is currently living with her son, has gone furniture shopping with her daughter, because she has already bought a house in Webb City.
It backs up to a graveyard, and she can't wait to live with her quiet neighbors. Ha! Ha!

This is the bathtub where she stayed during the tornado.
Her house is extensively damaged.
