Okay, I didn't really mean it.

Today there was a storm, and a big one too! We could hear thunder or something in the background. It hailed too. Now, what was the cause of this? Answer: A tornado.
No, I'm not joking. We didn't know this till we went to a farm supply store to get chickens, they said they were going to get some aurucana chickens--well, chicks.
It turned out that the aurucana chicks they had shipped in were NOT aurucana chicks.
They were Rhode Island Reds!

We bought some stuff for the chicks though: a waterer, feeder and some chicken food.
And that's where we found out there was a tornado that was devastating Windsor and Loveland (well, sort of: not as bad in Loveland.) We watched the weather and looked at some of the videos that were being taped by a helicopter. Wow, I'm glad that storm missed us! In fact it barely did! There's cottonwood branches all over our front and back yard!

There's even a power line that got knocked down on the road!

Now it's over: just some thunderstorms.
(You can hear them from here!)

Well, that's the most exciting thing that happened today. There's other things that happened: a piece of hail I found that was about an inch long. And that's it except for the tornado and the thunder i can hear right now from our porch.

Hope everyone that's reading this blog can't say they have been in a tornado, or at least one that hit a bit too close. I think we're lucky it missed us.
