My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage.
Think,just think,about how many people walked in,and walked out,of that door,but now,there isn't much to walk through.

My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. I am still trying to grasp the extent of all of the damage that was done.
For years,and years.People moved in, and moved out.Then new people would move in,and move out.Now it is ever forsaken.

My dad and I went to Birmingham AL to take photos of the tornado damage. There are not enough words to describe the destruction of all of the people's homes.
People were able to have electricity so that they could have lights in the bathroom, so that the fridge for the beverages would stay cold, so that the store workers would stay cool in summer Raeleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02767417280189048698noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244384934401738512.post-61514414182170702602011-03-10T17:41:00.000-08:002011-03-10T17:41:14.831-08:00Slam Dunk!I went to my friend Rodger's basketball game and took some pictures!I got some super lucky shots!This wasn't photoshopped, it was just lucky! :)

Kinda odd colors for a girl to pick isn't it? But I picked them cause of how pictures will stick out... once I actually put them up.
