Texas Mini-Twisters and Reality

SwimRing

Imagine this in a neon green. . .

Bill Here-

No real-time pictures. You’re going to need to use your imagination on this one.

Sometimes you just see strange things happen. When we pulled into Vega at the Walnut RV Park I saw something that caught my interest. There was a neon green child’s pool swim ring by the side of the road. I thought, “how odd”? I figured it might have blown out of the back of a pick up truck? We had just arrived here so I didn’t have too much time to think about it or take a picture.

Liftoff was just this side of the big white sign

The next day I was looking out the front windshield and saw a little whirlwind. It got bigger and bigger. It was right across the street, just 50 feet away. It picked up that neon green pool toy up. Higher and higher… round and round until it was 60-80-100 feet in the air over Historic Route 66 and moving north. I watched it until it was out of sight.

She went that a’way

Sometimes you just rub your eyes and wonder, “did I really just see that”? Well… now I have a better idea how it got there.

Somewhere, somebody is trying to figure out how it got out of the pool. And who knows where it will end up. Life is kinda like that sometimes, isn’t it?
