Chaos in Kansas


This is Main Street, Greensburg, Kansas six weeks after an F5 tornado took down everything but the courthouse and grain elevator.


Incredibly and inexplicably some parts of structures remain to identify their previous purpose like this bank depository, the bank vault, and an attached washroom.










This fellow's clothes are still hanging in the closet, but the rest of his home is in ruins.

There's no order or logic to a tornado . . .

Its effects are all so very random.









And strange.



Some folks can find their niche in any storm.

The sign on the door reads: "Space available - see manager for details."


One wall is left of the Boy Scouts meeting lodge.


No walls, but hope remains.
