Charles,

The one that started in SkItook and went to Vinita came by about a mile 
south of the house.  The sheriff came by and said that there was a 
tornado on the ground and coming our way.  My wife and grandson went to 
an inner closet in the house and I went outside to watch it go by on the 
south side of the barns.  It had lifted to about 200 feet by the time it 
arrived and dropped quite a bit of hail.  All the cars were either in 
the garage or the barns.

Have been lucky for a long time up here.
