Re: Bryan Texas Tornado Aftermath Pictures and Video

Re: Bryan Texas Tornado on May 26

I tried the attachment feature first and when that didn't work I resized to TinyPic. I then copied and pasted the [IMG] code. I can see the images on my side. Thanks, srain, I guess I'll leave it as is and meanwhile I be working on it.

Bryan Texas Tornado on May 26

On May 26, around 1:00 p.m., a tornado hit my neighborhood. My daughter and I were the only ones at home. I was resting from a trip that I had recently returned from. My daughter had already rescued some of our plants from the constant rain of the morning. Believe it or not, I had thought about watc...
