With the daily grind, it’s often easy to forget how unforgiving Mother Nature can be. Tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcano eruptions, droughts, floods and so on. At least until you turn on the news some nights.
The reality is that in the city of Atlanta last Friday night, we actually caught a break from old Mother Nature. SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament and an NBA game underway, thousands and thousands of people in town for home building and dentistry conferences, and the hotels in and around downtown were absolutely packed. Unfortunately Saturday storms and tornados claimed lives on the outskirt of the metro Atlanta area (my family was huddled in our basement as 2 twisters moved just past us). But the fact that an F2 tornado ripped through the heart of one of largest metropolitan areas in the US, where hundreds of thousands of extra people were camped out, and nobody was killed? AMAZING!?!?! A colleague of mine was attending the NBA game at Philips Arena and didn’t even realize a tornado had passed them by until he got home after the game!
