Greensburg Kansas Tornado Part 4

One of the buildings lost in the Greensburg Kansas tornado was Hunter Drug, which included an old fashioned soda fountain. My friend, Greg Holmes, visited there a few months ago and took some wonderful photos of the soda fountain. He has allowed me to share them here. This one was his last look as he left on that February day.



For more photos, check http://www.thelope.com. He will be adding photos to his post Remembering Greensburg. He is an exceptional photographer and I can guarantee you it will be an amazing look at what once was - just 24 hours ago.

Hi Patsy, I'm Jenny near Salina...found your blog on google about Greensburg. I am just stunned by this...having lived in KS all my 51 yrs this is one of the worst twisters I've seen. Glad I found your blog...excellent writing and photos and really enjoyed my visit. Do you mind if I link to your blog? You are more than welcome to visit mine...stay safe.

I would be flattered to have you link. I hope today is a much quieter weather day for all of us.

Hi again....Nasty weather just to the west of us. Tornado warnings in Lincoln, Ellsworth and Barton co. I have a good girfriend in Lincoln and she is taking cover in her cellar now and my husband is out mowing our lawn! Greensburg was such a quaint and pretty little town. I wonder if they will re-build. I hope this weather system goes away soon. BTW, Your quilting is beautiful.
