Ride Description: After working on backyard trails, I went over to check out the damage from last Monday's tornado.
From R.O.F.P. |
|
Last Monday, about 8 miles away from home, the little town of Caledonia Illinois, was hit by a tornado. Luckily, there were no severe injuries or deaths.
Today I rode over to check out the damage.
I got a couple pictures of damage near the bike path, but my camera batteries died before getting pictures of the damage in town.
I came back on Sunday and added 2 more pictures.
I was passed by a kid wearing baggy basketball shorts on a mountain bike. It was 30° at the time. Maybe the kid was vacationing from Iceland.
Photo #1 Across the street from the bike path, this building (the Town Hall) lost 3 walls and its roof.
Photo #2 This huge grain bin sustained quite a bit of damage.
Photo #3 The outhouse at the trailhead parking lot lost its roof and 2 outer walls.
Photo #4 The bike path sign was snapped in half. I didn't find the other half.
Photo #5 The huge Oak tree fell, taking the front part of the house with it.
