Can't really see the puddle out there; but except for the neighbor across the street that is the house of our closest neighbor. Hubby has known them all his life.
The farm field behind us. No standing water there now, though you could see it yesterday.
No noticeable standing water here, but you can bet it's there if you walk out there.
Our drainage depression.
This is a piece of a dead oak branch. It would probably crumble in your hand, but the storm drove this piece of branch into the ground. Probably about an inch. Didn't pull it out to check. We often see this sort of thing after a storm.
We are very blessed that we only lost power for a minute or two. There are small towns around us which are still without power. In one of the towns a man who was working lost his wife and daughter when their mobile home was overturned and destroyed. No other mobile home in the park was damaged. May God comfort that family.
I hope you all have a safe, blessed week.
I'm glad y'all got through it safely.
ReplyDeleteThose storms looked powerful. Glad your all safe.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that your roof held and kept the rain out and that the rains dissipated. If you see a neighbor building a large wooden boat and animals lining up, then you need to worry...
ReplyDeleteWe have had lots of rain, and high winds this last week. There was an 150 yr old oak that toppled over near here,the lady had been tending her garden near it just a short time before hand. It missed their house, power lines, and assorted other things. They were very lucky.
