Florida is not having a good beginning of spring. Tornadoes + tents + airplanes are no fun. My dad and I almost went down there, actually.

What's up with the tents and airplanes?

There's a fly-in event that happens annually called Sun 'n Fun in Florida, and it happened to be this week. Yesterday the tornado and thunderstorm caused a make-shift tent hanger to collapse on 70 people. They were trapped for a while until rescue crews could make it out that way. The most serious injury was a broken hip, but still not too much fun. Many people had their small private dream airplanes destroyed, and those aren't the cheapest things to replace.

Stay safe, and don't let your small airplanes get wrecked.
