Just Another Visual That Makes Me Grateful 😊
To Live In The Rocky Mountain 🏔 High! :{>:

I live in tornado alley, but they usually pass over Hot Springs without a problem. A few years back one hit about 15 miles east of my house in the small town of Malvern. Here in Arkansas we did lose a couple of people in the extreme northeast to the storms, but that is about 4 hours from where I live. Arkansas is dissected by an interstate that runs from the Southeast to Little Rock. Seems like the tornadoes almost always hit east of the interstate for some reason. Maybe because of flatter ground, I guess. Western Arkansas is more mountainous. Eastern is where all the rice, soybeans, cotton etc. is grown in the Mississippi River Delta which tends to be very flat.

Our good friend Eduardo Terrazzas ("Border Cat" on previous forums) has a small horse farm in the general Lexington, Louisville area. I messaged him to see if all was OK. He said they were not bothered, that the damage was mostly in the southwestern part of Kentucky. But he's just one of many farms. Prayers for all in Kentucky and surrounding states that were hitby thes terrible tornadoes.

BTW Eduardo, if anyone remembers him, is doing very well for himself, slowly building clientle for the past oh 10-12 yrs (guess) and we hope soon to get back a have a tour of his sables and paddocks. We got to know him around 2000 when he was at Taylor Made. I believe his set up is more of a brooding farm than breeding farm. Very nice man with roots in west Texas. He used to be the Breeding Manager for Taylor before he went off on his own.
