The tornado that touched down in Polk County lifted things from that area and carried some more than 100 miles.
A picture belonging to victims of the storm in the town of Aragon was found 110 miles away in the Hall County town of Lula -- a two hour drive.
He knew right away that his discovery was something special.
"That picture is old," said Jim Fountain, who found the picture. "I knew someone wouldn't want to discard a picture thisold."
It took awhile for Jim Fountain to learn just what made the 33-year-old photograph so special. He and his wife found it while walking their dogs along the Chattahoochee River in Hall County. The mystery of the young girl on a white horse was solved fairly easily when Jim looked at the back of the photograph to find the name Kelly Turner and the date -- 1975.
"We thought we could find someone local on the Internet, do a name search," said Fountain. "Thought we could get it back to them. Never knew it would be the Turners involved with that tornado."
Fountain was able to trace the name Kelly Turner to Polk Count, and the deadly tornado that ravaged that area. Kelly Turner's mother lost her life in the storm. Her father was injured when the tornado ripped their home apart, spreading their belongings across the countryside.
Among the belongings, that picture that was lifted, spinning in the twister and deposited 107 miles away in Jim Fountain's path.
"All the rain and hail we had, and the wind, and to have just one little hole in it," said Fountain. "It's amazing."
And that's not all. Some of the Turners' belongings were found even further away -- in Habersham County.
Jim Fountain is making sure out of everything the Turner family lost, they'll get something back.
"Hopefully they can find a little peace with this picture," said Fountain.
