Trees practically denuded....looks like the leaves that are left are all tattered. I do wonder how they'll be, as they were pretty nice oaks, and just about all the shade we had!

I didn't notice that all the gutters on the back side of the house were vinyl. They're swiss cheese now, totally useless. Decorative light's globes/bulbs destroyed. All the planting? Well, whatever survived is gonna be hardy stock. Roof? I dunno, it's only @ 2 yrs. old, but judging from all the grit on the ground, I'd guess it's aged 10 years.

Pockmarks in the ground down to a depth of 2 inches! Amazing. Not sure I want to be a witness to those things weighing a 'talent', if you know what I mean...:)

WOW. How depressing to have that happen, just when people had probably started cleaning up the yard and planting cheerful things for spring. Where are you?

Wow! I'd definately demand a new roof from my insurance adjuster, coz I'll bet that one's shot. The trees should recover. They'll put out new leaves. I'm not sure I know what you mean about "weighing a talent". 'Splain pleez. ;o)

I've always had a horror of my horses being out in a hailstorm like that. They have a barn they can get in, but the noise scares them too bad to stay in it. When I hear reports of golfball-sized hail and even softball-sized hail, I can't even imagine what it would be like to be out in that unprotected. I imagine the softball-sized stuff would kill you.
