Huntersville

I began yesterday with 199 walk-miles behind me; finished with 214. Not a bad first month, especially considering I went 11 days in a row without walking. --> Late in the day I walked through a town called Huntersville. It's not really a town; more like a small concentration of houses. Right away I noticed a house that looked abandoned. It didn't look old, like its age made it fall apart, or anything; it was just kinda messed-up looking. Soon I passed another house like that, and lots of new houses, too. Then I noticed a lot of trees were torn out of the ground, lying idle. I wondered if they were just demolishing older homes to make space for newer, more upscale, landscaped homes. Finally I passed a mailbox with a sidewalk to no house, and the bells went off. Tornado? --> I feel pretty sure all this damage and new construction must be the result of a tornado, but I have no idea. So I'm
hoping someone will do a Google search and leave a comment about whatever they find out. Thanks.
