Well, the Adams family experienced a first yesterday. Koochiching county was under a tornado watch from 10 am - 6 pm on Wednesday and from 4 - 4:30 pm we were under a tornado warning and had all the emergency sirens of town doing their warning sound. No tornado though! For which we are very grateful. I guess in the history of the town only one tornado has ever touched down. Littlefork, a town about 20 miles southwest and Ray, a town about 25 miles south east have both seen tornadoes, in fact we heard about a house being destroyed the first summer we were here in Littlefork.
Wednesday night was a wild weather night. We received almost 2 inches of rain and had two lightning storms, one from 12 - 2 am and the other from 5 - 5:30 am. Needless to say, I was very glad that Thursday I was scheduled to work until 8 pm and didn't have to get up at 6.
Today is beautiful and my garden is beginning to sprout. I will be glad of a few more plants. The new hanging basket I received for Mother's Day from my family became too waterlogged and pulled the hook out of the wall, fell and broke. I am trying to save as many of the plants as I can, but they took quite a beating between the rain, the wind, and being dropped.
Enjoy your summer and let us know how you're doing.
Diane
