More Storms

Some storms went through our town yesterday afternoon, about 30 minutes before we were to leave to go on a fishing launch on Mille Lacs lake. These pictures show the storms moving north of our house, about 1/10 of a mile from our house. The funnel clouds were hovering over a small private lake behind our house. It wasn't raining at all at our house, but you could tell it was really bad north of here. The sirens went off 3 or 4 times. I guess there was a tornado that touched down not far from here. The power also went out for a couple of hours.
Yeah, ignore the garden. I'm boycotting it this year. We left and it was only raining, but the power wasn't back on. It was beautiful on Mille Lacs and was only a little windy. We all went out for a couple of hours and didn't catch anything, and then the boys dropped us off and went out for a couple more hours. I think they ended up catching 10 or so. I'm just glad this is as close as the storm got, or things could have been much more interesting yesterday.
