crazy storm

So my parents had a little wind storm at their house Saturday night...you think it was windy where you were?? I don't think so!!! This barn was built in or around 1908...and today it is a thing of the past!!! My mom says that Amy was telling her some of the stuff we did in the barn... and my mom says that she had no idea that we did some of these things...like jumping from the loft down into piles of hay...that has definitely got to be my favorite! so the golf cart and tractor were so close...but were not hit by any of the flying debris...the garage was not so lucky...pieces of wood imbedded into the metal garage wall...broken lights inside the garage...





The end of an era...sad!!! also lots of limbs and branches broken all over the property...and a branch from this tree that was uprooted in the back of the house...broke a window over my parents kitchen table...mom was in the house at the time, heard the glass breaking, looked out the window from her bedroom and saw the tree going down...nobody was hurt at least nobody at their house was hurt...just a lot of fun cleanup in the days and weeks to come...


that is the darn branch that broke the window...



I was able to go up yesterday and see the damage...these pictures are from my mom's camera, we will see if I decide to add anymore pictures from the ones that I took...or if I will just let this do the job!!

  1. Wow!! I had no idea it had been that windy up here!!

    I'm sad to see that awesome old barn we explored is no longer! I'm glad we saw it when we did, though, and that everyone's ok.
