Sunday we experienced a big wind storm that I definitely was NOT expecting! We were in church when the wind really picked up and when we got out - an hour early - roads everywhere were blocked with fallen trees. As you can see, the damage was quite extensive for many. We were so blessed not to have any problems. Most of our friends and Pete's parents had no electricity for a few days...some STILL don't even have power now!
Notice the power line that was knocked down along with the tree!
Monday morning we were running low on gas and figured we would get some on the way to work. We didn't realize how extensive the damage was until we drove down a busy street and saw that grocery stores, fast food and restaurants, businesses, and many (not all) gas stations were shut down because they had no power! By the end of the day grocery stores and other places were throwing out their frozen foods because they were all thawing out!
By the way, these aren't pics I took...I found these on the internet...there are articles and other pics if you want to find out more!

Wow that is crazy! We have some tall trees in our back yard that make me nervous when the wind blows. I am glad you are ok!
