Joplin, Missouri

WOW! Today was exhausting!

First off I stayed up to 3 a.m. because an old friend wanted me to play Gears of war. No biggie, but I woke up at 7:30 to go run... with my super soar legs. Afterwards one of my friends wanted to go help at Joplin that got it by a huge F-5 tornado. So I had to drive two hours, one way, to go help clean up. It was quite devastating...


I took some pictures that I'd like to share, though pictures just don't give it justice. Plus my phone sucks... and I'm a horrible photographer annnnndddd it was taken in the back of a bumpy, speeding truck. SOooo many excuses. anyways here's some pics:












The devastation is like this for a six mile stretch, it's literally as far as the eye can see.

On the plus side I got to spend some time with people that I like so it wasn't all that bad.

Yea you haters thought I was just a total ass didn't you? Nah I'm just a douche for the most part, but I'm kind and charming. That's why the ladies love me... and some of the girly boys? :/ about that...

    Tornadoes suck. If they have to destroy stuff can't they at least blow it all into one neat pile, preferably near a landfill?

    The force of mother nature is one to be reckoned with. Some good snaps.
