May 3rd




High winds today and at least one tornado which spared us a direct hit.
The other half of the Bradford pear is down, and I've spent the biggest portion of the day clearing limbs and branches from the yard. Neighbor a few blocks away lost their roof, and across the street lost his carport which was attached to the front of his house in a similar fashion to mine.
Off line all day without power, we are presently running off a generator from Darrell's crew truck.
The other pictures here are just Kay taking some shots she finds interesting , and a homemade cannon built by two of the boys,

Glad you guys are ok. We've just had continual rain. You'd think we were in Seattle.....

Be sure to take a load off and have a glass of iced tea. Tomorrow's never been touched.
