This week has had lots of "weather". High winds on Monday night caused power outages. Ours was out for 2 hours. Joleen's was over night. Ben and JoLin was closer to 20 hours. Shannon's family slept in the basement because their home is surrounded by trees. At least we now have fewer corn stalks to cut.
This is the post to the arbor that snapped in the heavy gusts.
The poor arbor was pretty heavily laden with wisteria.
Hopps cover this oblisek in summer and I like to leave the bare branches during the winter just for the look. The wind just whisked them all away!
Then Tuesday morning we had the earthquake. It rattled the dishes in the cupboard. But by the looks of the red oak leaves with the morning sun shining through, all is peaceful......for the moment.
We had thunder and lightening in the middle of the night last night with rain and hail hitting like a ton of bricks.

Wow! You've had a little excitement, enough to last for awhile. Glad you are all okay. Have their ever been earthquakes in that area? It's good that it wasn't worse.
No way! You didn't say anything about this excitement when we have talked during the week. Is that called selective communication??? I am thankful you are all in one piece.
Great pictures - especially love the last one with the sun shining through! Life is good.
