It is the same tornado that hit Lake High School and the town of Millbury (east of Toledo). It incredible to see the devastation. I'm thinking that Oak Openings frosted in the winter with snow will be the thing I miss most about NW Ohio. Won't miss the frigid cold and wind tho!
I drove thru the area on my way to work shortly after the tornado last june and couldn't believe the damage. We are still part timers since we are having a hard time selling our home in Maumee. Now that the weather is getting nicer here, it isn't so bad, but I don't think I can do one more cold, grey winter!! If we run into you in TV, the first beer is on me!
