Just some pics of the problems I am having. Most of these trees are in large piles alongside the road.

This is the entrance to my complex. You can't even see the road. If you look in the backround you can see some trees standing.


Lucy and I standing under a fallen tree. I would guess about 50 or 60 of these trees fell during the storm. Just within the complex that I live in.


Another pic of the road into my complex. No way in or out.

This is just few of the pix I took. Most of the damage was cosmetic. Trees, fences and stuff like that. all through the whole complex were trees on cars, buildings and acroos the roads. Oh did I mention the trees fell onthe power lines too.

Nope, just my cars. My truck has a dented front quarter panel. This will not be fixed. Lucy's car had the windshild broken. Already repaired. And Lucy's work car has damage to the hood and the sunroof blew in. Already repaired.

Hey! Where did your feet go?
