      Crazy for our two days up there! Then we went back down South, saw a handful at most.

      I wish I could convey what it was like IRL, lacking the writing skills. But yeah, stunning is the best word I got. America hasn’t seen such an event since 1803! You could hardly walk without stomping a live one. Birds were FAT and I can’t imagine what all the shells were like after. CRUNCH, crunch, CRUNCH, crunch.

      There are plenty of videos, but like a hurricane or tornado, they just don’t convey the sense of what it was like on the ground.
