Wicked weather...

After a night of hearing the wind howling and the rain beating against the house, we woke up to this...

The screen door was torn off right at the hinges and the little wood snowman had lost his legs...

And a good portion of one side of our twig fence was blown down. The wind snapped one of the thick log footings that was in the ground.
It has been a crazy winter, warm temperatures, not much snow, and now this wicked rain storm. The kids even had a "snow day" today because half the town was without power this morning and there were flood warnings. Luckily we live on a hill and didn't lose power, but there is a lot of clean up to do.

  3. Our weather can pretty wild here and our winter has been so odd, more snow than usual. I guess Mother Nature gets cranky too! Glad your all safe.

  5. I know, what a strange day. I made it up to my office before I realized the power was out. They had police at the intersection directing traffic. I had to shut down the office for the day. I wasn't expecting that at all. Didn't it sound like a freight train all last night. Glad we are all safe and warm.
