Good morning all
. . . . . Didja Know?
On June 10, 1958, a tornado was crashing through El Dorado, Kansas. The storm pulled a woman out of her house and carried her sixty feet away.

She landed relatively unharmed next to a phonograph record titled "Stormy Weather."

When I read the first paragraph, I thought, "Sure, I can believe that! It's probably happened quite a few times." But when I read about the Stormy Weather record - well, I'll be! That IS an amazing thing! Interesting stuff, Joy!
