Driving around checking out the weather clouds swirling around Mason City tonight, I ran into these guys. So I quickly ran home and got my camera.
This is some cool shit!!!


















The light gray one shows 16 tornados painted on the driver's side. I didn't ask anyone there, but I assume that means it has survived 16 tornados.

I want this job!!!

It looks like you are in the parking lot of Bill White's Old Service Station on the north end of Mason City, next to Kum B. Go across from what used to be Toad something? There is a documentary of these machinces on Tv, DVD. Very cool!

Exactly the location they were at. Used to be the Stoned Toad, now it's Burke's Bar & Grille. The old Jack & Jill store is a thrift shop, the gas station next door to that is a liqour store. The buildings north of all that on the same side and empty and condemed. This is 3 blocks north of my house. A tornado would do this area some good... call it a clensing! lol.gif

Before you wish for "cleansing" you should check your home owners insurance policy~! frantics.gif
