Here are some pictures of our tornado damage. Not too far away a woman's house was completely demolished from a fallen tree and her neighbor's car was smooshed from another tree as well.
Tree #1-this is in our 3rd section of property just at the gate. We have over an acre and 1/2 so this is not near the house. It was a huge tree, as it fell it took out the old chicken coop. As you can see in the next picture. We are hoping the other 1/2 that is standing can stay.
This is tree #2-it is in the 4th section of property...there are 5 sections all together.
Tree #3- Toward the very back of the property, fortunately we didn't continue the fence in front of this tree!
Tree#4- you can't really see it but it is the tree with the yellowie leaves. I couldn't get over there to take a picture...the area has lots of underbrush-I've never been over that way before.
Here is a shot of our neighbor's RV, the limb was as big as a tree! This neighbor walked out of the house and saw the tornado just overhead! He kindly came and checked on us since he knew Calixto was away.

Praise God you guys are all ok. Do you guys have a basement to go to during a tornado?
no, no basements here in East Texas. The sirens went off after the tornado and the kids hid in an interior closet in the living room at that point. Although we live in Tx we don't live in "tornado alley" so we don't have tornado cellars like people in other parts of the state have.
Wow, I had no idea it was that bad. We heard the siren, but the worst part of the storm had already passed by the time it went off. You aren't a mile from us! I'm glad nothing fell on your house.
