Resized it a little bigger, lost some clarity but you can get the general idea.

Thanks Shotgun Willie, that's the one. I live about 1 mile north of the path on CR 190, we watched it and heard it. We were truly blessed!!

I can't really see the county rd. number I think it's 275. We are about eight miles down it by the cemetery. We sometimes go in by the Mangum church

Pretty bad if I don't know the roads where I hunt. What if I have an emergency? I will make sure I do know next time there

Knew I was going to find bad things when I got there from what I was told and having seen a couple pics of the place. The Landowner and her son are in the Eastland hospital battered and bruised but alive for which I am truly thankful. They were in the house, the room they were is is just bare slab now. .,

View to West from Land Owners house



This last pic is from a news source and is of her house.
