A Town in Ruins

When I was a kid, my family and I were driving back from a family vacation down in Georgia. After driving for a while, we decided to pull over for food. The next exit had plenty of stores on the interstate sign, so we got off to check it out. When we exited, we got a look at the area and it was surreal. 

Everything was just in ruins. The Taco Bell, the gas stations, all of them were shredded piles of rubble. Also, there wasn’t another soul around, aside from a couple of cars that had the same thought as us.

The last few days there had been some bad storms, so we assumed a tornado had rolled through, but still, it was crazy to see. We were just kind of in awe for a few minutes. I had never seen devastation like that up close in person.
