One Beautiful Day In California

WOW! We were zipping through the darkness, on the fastest roller coaster in Disneyland,THE MOUNTAIN OF DOOM, at first ,I was terrified (No really I was going to jump of my pants)to go on the ride some guy got his hands cut off[like omg], and for a long time I was terrified. Now, I was on the most fantastic ride in Disney. Finally ,I can brag to my friends. After, I got off me and my mom got some corn dogs and Ice cream,and it was so cold and Delishis, butt out know where one of the seagulls got my Ice cream I was so mad I tried to catch the bird and then BAM it flew away.

After the tornado though, there was an early out. Which would be obvious. We lived in a trailer park, so in my scared mind, my family was hurt and my house was destroyed and i was hoping that my family and pets made it to shelter. My mom came and got me and told me everyone was ok, and that we are fine. When we made it into our trailer park, there was a news van a very big famous news of Kansas in our Trailer Park!! Which recently after trying to show people the news I found out my friend's aunt was on the

Since the beginning of time there have been countless weather disasters, which include hurricanes, floods and tornadoes. Comparable to other natural disasters, there is a great deal of severe damage to properties, businesses and unfortunately loss of life. There were a total of 422 tornadoes throughout the country in 1953. Texas has endured a multitude of disastrous storms; however on May 11, 1953 there was a particular storm that forever transformed a city called Waco, Texas known as 1953 Waco Tornado.

Faster! Faster! Move, you lazy good-for-nothings!"

My mom, Kailli and I were spending our first week of summer in the hot dry sun of Palm Desert. As we were planning out our agenda for the next day, we came across a brochure for the Taquitz falls three miles deep into the hot Palm springs desert. We had to see it with our own eyes to believe it. A waterfall in the middle of the desert seemed bizarre, so the next morning we set off for our hike at six in the morning. After a couple bumps in the road we finally began our hike

Before I moved to Canton, I lived in Wethersfield CT. One day during late summer when I was around 6 years old there was a bad thunderstorm. It ended up turning into a storm with tornadoes. My dad was in the middle of mowing the lawn and suddenly came inside, which is unusual because he likes to finish what he starts. When he came in he said that the sky didn't look right. My mom stood near the stove making chicken salad sandwiches with a worried look on her face.

So they ran away to an abanded church and stayed there for four days until Dally came to get them they went to dairy queen and passed back by the church to see it on fire and there was five kids trapped in the church. So Ponyboy, Johnny, and Dally went to go get the kids out of the church but Johnny got trapped inside so Dally went to go save him. They had to go to the hospital. Johnny died and after Dally robbed a bank and the cops had killed him.

Families were separated and some people now had no families. Most of the families finally met back up but not everyone was that fortunate. During the storm a man had gotten took into the storm and was in the water up to five hours. The man had started to get hypothermia, and just knew he was gonna die. THis man found a house and it was not flooded and decided to break into the house and the story says he had wrote a letter to the family and left it on the door.

One day in the Sacramento Valley in 1848, there was a group of guys working in the mine as they do every day on this bright cold January day. Billy and all of his friends of 25 years had been working in the mines to hopefully retire earlier than their peers who also have been working for about the same amount. They worked days and nights and in their free time they always spent time with their wives and each other as they were best friends. As they continued to work, there had been talk about finding gold in the rivers around Sacramento Valley. They didn’t know if it was true, but that didn’t stop them from looking. As the days starting getting a little warmer they still had no hope of the mysterious rumors spreading rapidly. Until

Back in 2012 we had a Derecho which was a damaging wind storm which some people called it a mini tornado in Waynesboro. I was outside at a racetrack when this happened and it seemed like time stood still. Everyone was rushing to their cars to go home and running around looking for somewhere to take cover. All I can remember was the adrenaline rush to get into a safe and sturdy place to wait out this storm. My mawmaw told me to get under the concession stand shelf, but all I wanted was to peek up and watch as this wind picked up every little thing it could. Trees were down, power was out, and destruction was left behind for some houses. The ending quote Crenshaw wrote, “I realized they watched from the window to see the terrible beauty of the storm…”( 2004, pg.206), made me relate back to that night because all I wanted to do was sit and watch as this storm

When I got home I had barely stepped inside when I heard this loud whirring, a tornado siren. I immediately headed down into the basement and hid. There were loud booms and I heard crashing. After a few minutes of the bombardment, half of the ceiling came crashing down onto the basement floor. As I scurried away from the wreckage, another pile of debris crashed down on me and I

It was 1:30pm it was dark and raining out, tornado sirens were going off and then Mr. Noot got a phone call.

One morning my dad and I woke up in our hotel room watching the glorious sunrise and were quietly walking down the hallway of the hotel to go to the lobby. In the lobby, there were these huge advertisement banners hanging up that said, "Take a roll through the desert." There were pictures of people riding ATV's in the desert so we decided to go on an adventure.

It was a beautiful day at our Los Angeles pad. Myself, Burt Ward, was just getting back from work with my best friend in the world Adam West.

It happened one late Sunday afternoon. My friend Dan and I were sitting in his car patiently waiting for the next availably gas pump. It was
