Tornado in Millington, Michigan the other day


We were very fortunate; early Friday morning a tornado hit the village* of Millington and caused some damage. We actually live about five miles west of the Millington in Arbela Township**. Thankfully, no damage was done in our area, although I did unplug our computer in case we needed to take it downstairs.


*Millington, because of its small size, is actually a village and not a town.

** Michigan, unlike other states like Texas, divides its counties up into areas called townships. This is helpful in identifying the rural location of someone who lives outside a city.
