Use caution.....

Most of the time, folks who read my blog and want to say something, email me. This is a response to a few who have asked what I thought about them storm chasing. To Tiffany, Kevin, Cheryl, Boyd, Grant, George, Tony, Anthony, Argus, Cloe, Julian, Julia, Julie, and the rest of the young adults who have asked this question:

You guys need to understand something.... Even though the movies and contemporary videos on Youtube make storm chasing seem like a lot of fun, to those untrained, it is extremely dangerous. YOU CAN GET KILLED! You need to leave storm chasing to the professionals. I know this does not set well with many of you, and no, it is not because I am a grandfather that I say this. Kids, I spent years and years as a police officer, dealing with things most of you would get sickened by. One thing I dealt with was the aftermath of cleaning up the corpses of people who were killed by tornadoes. It is not something I would wish on anyone, not the body retrieval, not being a victim.

So please, let the folks who are trained spotters do the chasing?!

PEACE!!!
