Oh my goodness, Lil!
That’s a huge amount of property damage. How awful for you. I’m glad you weren’t home - it would have sounded as scary as anything. What a cleanup you have ahead of you. Beautiful property, though, and it will look gorgeous again I’m sure.
Thank you! Praise the Lord for sure.
We’ll have it back to normal at some point! A lot of work for sure and we’re feeling our age (mid 50s). Our kids are helping when they can.
It is pretty here, and I love the shade. I do sometimes wish our trees were “mid size” and not 80-100’ When one falls it does so much damage. We had someone take down several trees around our house a few years ago that seemed not to be thriving but these trees all look pretty healthy. It was almost all tulip poplar that fell and I wonder if they have a shallow root system.
Spunky, we weren’t home but normally in storms we head to the basement which is half underground. Our neighbor was stuck in his shed during this storm, that must have been pretty scary!
Sweetie - mosquitos do get bad around dusk, but we have a lot of dragonflies and bats that keep the numbers down. Not nearly as bad as in Florida, I get eaten up down there.
