finally got my power back

So this last storm front made my life interesting. lost power, friends house got crushed (but then again so did my ex-girlfriends chevy) watched not one, not two but three rounds of hail pumble me at work

crappy part was my camera drown in my pocket
hope to upload whats on my memory card soon.

Been playing cleanup crew on my block all day long. Surprised by what all happened in my area.

anyone else get hammered?

Hope no one was hurt. Sounds like there was some pretty nasty weather going on down there.

oh man, glad to hear you're alright. Good luck on the cleanup

My friend suffered a mild concussion.(sp) I remember when he used to poke fun at me when i had mine
Im going to try and tackle the tree that fell down this afternoon. Tried getting the city to help out and they won't lift a finger for atleast a week. Meanwhile theres just a huge tree sitting on the house keeping people from going inside.
On a side note though, should make some good firewood.

Be careful cutting down those leaning trees!! They can do some pretty unpredictable things!! They don't call them "Widow-makers" for nothing.

Good on ya for helping clean up the area!!

I did the same thing when we got hit with that nasty icestorm over a year ago. My work was the only place that had any power in the county. we housed 400 people at our motel and fed about 1400 people a day for 5 days. When i wasnt on the floor i was out in my climbing gear helping the electric crews cut a path for the lines.

I hear ya on the unpredictable part! got the scars on me to prove it!
Good thing is though its down completely crushed the garage part of the house so i am just waiting for the darn electric company to get here so we can secure the lines and get them cleared.
