Windstorm, Aug. 25, 2007: His Tonka truck fared better



2007-08-26 - Beulah Chapel, KY 206, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener.
MASON FRANKLIN, a third grader at John Adair Intermediate School, above with his parent's, Timmy and Terra Franklin's, 1986 Ford Ranger. The bed of the truck was dented by this big water maple limb, blown down in the windstorm Saturday. Mason was out the highway with his grandmother, and his mother, Terra Franklin was in town when the storm hit. "I thought I was out of the storm, when I left Columbia," she said, "then when I passed our house to get Mason, I saw this." Mason's Tonka truck was on the carport and was carried across 206, but a neighbor recognized it and brought it home. A few limbs blew off a tree in the Beulah Chapel Cemetery, next door. "It was covering a little baby's grave," Mason said, "but we cleaned cleaned it off."
