NO, WE'RE NOT IN KANSAS AUNTIE EM

Hail, hail, the gangs all here


Picture of Craig ,MO


The road to Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri was not without some excitement. As you probably heard on the news, the biggest storm to hit that area arrived on Sunday. It seemed that Craig and his trainer Ken kept about 20 miles ahead of the storm and missed the tornado and a chance to see Toto. They did happen upon a big hail storm, don't know if you can see the hail from the picture posted. From the news, they showed hail the size of baseballs!

Did you know Craig was famous in Missouri? Neither did I. It seems there is a town called, yep you guessed it, Craig, Missouri. He was able to get a quick picture of it as they drove by. You can see it is a thriving metropolis!

They finally arrived in the Fort Leonard Wood area Sunday evening. The Army truck was dropped off and then it was on to Lebanon, Missouri to pick up some boats. At about 1:30pm our time, they collected the last of the paperwork and were headed on a fast track back to Spokane. They planned on team driving, night and day, and hoped to get to Spokane by Wednesday evening.

The pictures posted are of Craig, Missouri and the hail accumulated along side the roadway.
