Magnificent clouds during the storm

Wonderful cloud show during the storm this morning. I waited for the sunrise!

This is perfectly fine with me.

Coke, gutters and fences

The tree that was in this spot, literally was hauled off with a semi today. This tree ended up inside the man with the fences home, and his neighbors and also his and smashed his car and the neighbors cars. Freaks me out actually to see it.

This house was so damaged I didn’t want to show it all. This would have freaked me out and to think my house wasn’t touched. Don’t know what that means it’s just so something to me right now. I’m so thankful and grateful for the six homes on my street that were not touched.

Shingles shouldn’t be here

See the tree? The silhouette of the roof shingle? I wanted to say oh look there’s your roof shingle. But instead I just stood here looking at it. Such an odd place for roof shingles.

I cannot express how shocked I was and very humbled. Gee I didn’t have a bad week. Not at all. Well maybe just a little bit but I kept thinking these poor neighbors with holes in their roof and some missing their roofs. Some houses completely gone.

All this damage is in the front of my neighborhood. I live in the back, close to the woods and I have no trees or fences. I do so love trees and fences and roofs. I’ve always loved the patterns of roofs. Seeing them like this really…well I just don’t have words.

 

Broken fences

I have fence envy. I’ve always loved this fence. Every morning when I drive by, I see the sunrise through the pickets and I think I’m going to stop and take a photo. Tonight I did regret not taking the time before to admire this sweet man’s fence and all his hard work. I wanted to show you my favorite broken fence, my neighbor just left it like this. Maybe for me to find. I don’t know.

I love this split rail fence with the chain link. I love this man’s fence. I see him outside tending to all the many trees in his yard and I was a bit sad to see his broken fence.
