A tree uprooted flat in our yard and crashed thru our neighbors.
Where the fence used to be...looking to our neighbors yard.
They all watched the trees crashing up and down the street.
The kids with the roots of 1 uprooted pines. Brenn was the same size as the roots that came out of the ground!. The other 2 photos aare of other areas where trees were uprooted by wind and rain. It is amazing to me, still.
I am sure you are tired of me blogging about Ike, I am using this blog as a journal as well. This way the kids will be able to access it any time they want to show someone or just remember. A picture album can be lost in any of our many moves. (I don't want that to happen again, as we lost a lot of our precious Christmas tree ornaments this last move). We are still without power for 12 days now. We thought the end was in sight, sadly it is not. When they told us there was a possibility of a 3-5 day outtage we thought...no...not here....not in "The Woodlands"...we were wrong, obviously. Our damage could have been so much worse, thankfully this is what we have to deal with. The kids are tired of it, as well and T and I. I hope to have a date for power restoration sometime by the year 2012!!
