Crazy Winds

So many of you had some crazy weather this past weekend.  I just heard about the flooding up north--I hope all of you and your houses are okay.  Down here we have not had rain since maybe a week and a half ago, however we had category 1 hurricane winds Sunday morning.  Not one drop of rain, or lightning, but an insane wind storm.  The news has said that winds reached around 60 mph here and up to 80 mph just south of here in Kentucky!  Fortunately for us, all the trees/limbs/branches that came down were in the yard and hit nothing.  Our neighbors had a tree limb (about half of the tree really) fall on their door step!  Another neighbor had a tree fall on top of their barn!  We were very lucky to say the least!

Our neighbors most recent visitor was so close, it could have knocked on the door (no pun intended!)
Our shed still stands, but is surrounded by fallen limbs from the trees in the backyard
