I have had better, more coordinated days.

It is still blowing, but not nearly as bad. I went out on the deck and a big birch tree has gone down from the far bank of the creek and is resting on the schoolyard fence. School was cancelled today, so they haven't see it.

My Mom says the school property is 11' this side of the fence...some sort of right-a-way. The far bank that used to slope down to the water is now a straight drop. The bridge is going to have to go. Our 6 knees that don't work well are not going to be going CAREFULLY down to the bridge, walk across, and then UP the far side bank....and the handrail in down as well.

Anything the kids need to retrieve....they will have to (now legitimately) climb the fence. Then just to the left, another tree from the far bank in leaning in the school fence. And another huge chunk of bank is gone. *sigh*
