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 heat.There used to be a gas station here,but it

6 inches of snow in Mississippi.... Crazy right?!? It started snowing Sunday afternoon, and by about 9 o'clock the ground had about 4 inches of foreign white stuff.

The red wall will be strictly for black and white pictures, because I love the way
