Last weeks storm



Last week Wednesday and Thursday, we had some big storms come through. There was a lot of wind. We lost power Wednesday night and were prepared for problems Thursday. Well nothing really happened until we woke up Friday morning and this is what we found. This tree fell over during the night. It probably got weakened from the storm. We had taken our pool down and laid it over the trampoline to dry out. Now the tree fell on it. Our insurance guy came over Saturday to take pictures. We'll have to try to put some more water in the pool to see if it leaks. We didn't see any outright holes but there might be leaks. We also have to see if our tramp got bent, but I think it looks okay for now.

Oh my ... that's a bummer ! We had some huge storms here last week too. Actually, most of Australia is in drought but where we live has plenty of rain. We even had some flooding a couple of suburbs over. I hope your pool is ok and that your trampoline survived !! Could have been worse though ... at least it didn't come through a window or land on your car !!

Wow - thats too bad. It was a pretty tree. Hope everything turns out okay with the tramp and pool. Like Bonnie said - at least it didn't go through the roof or anything like that!

Wow! I hope everything is okay. Like they said though - it could be worse - it could have fallen on the house! Remember when we were staying overnight during that storm and got a call that a tree went through Larry and Lyn's roof!
