Frightened Fauna in wake of Hail which hit The Holler Shamarie comeback as photographer has rocky launch. Even fearless photographer ran for cover when hail pounded down on her refuge like World war had broken out again; the cover of hail was as pretty as a winter snow, but there was trauma, the trees and plants won't even remember the beating they got, but the writer and the coon dog may be changed forever Click on headline for full story with photo(s) By Shamarie Claiborne Well as many of you know with my new job I am busier than I like and haven't had time to do what I love most which is take pictures. Things are beginning to slow down some so last week I have put my camera back in my car to have with me at all time just in case I see a photo opportunity. So it was only typical of my life when it started to hail yesterday and the camera was in the car and I was in the house. As I was looking out the front door at my car cursing myself under my breath and debating whither or not to run for the car/camera it started hailing bigger and bigger pieces and the roof was sounding like World War III had broken out. I decided it might be time to abandon the camera idea and head for cover. I normally don't worry due to the fact that we live in a bank house tucked snuggly in The Holler in an area of Adair County that doesn't normally get hit with tornadoes but this had a different feel so for the first time in years I went for cover in the back bath which Jimmy Harper has assured me is the safest place in our home. As you can see from the pictures the holler was intact when I came out from hiding but it looked like it had snowed! In further inspection The Holler had little damage other than 50 million tree twigs down in every direction but all the animals and people are in excellent condition except for one slightly traumatized coon dog who would not come out of her house until this morning. -Shamarie This story was posted on 2012-03-03 13:48:15
