Alot of rain & wind

The rain has been coming down day after day......week after week.......(well - you get the point).

Yesterday morning we woke up to very strong winds. ("very strong" is an under-statement.)

I noticed our cats sitting at the sliding glass door very interested in something, but didn't think much of it.

Until later that morning. One of the trees in our yard blew down. It's a good thing we have a big yard and it didn't hit the house. It was startling to see it laying on the ground like that.

As you can see, the roots and all came out of the ground.
