Wall of Wind

Storms came one after another this past week. On Thursday, my friend Bill mentioned quite a breeze visited his house (he lives north of Chicago). He asked if it made its way here.

Yeah, I think it did, Bill.

Large branches crashed down, taking out the hoop.
The CRV got a couple of new dimples.
A power line to the mercury vapor light got whacked.
A whole lotta chain-sawing to be done.

    You can’t say I didn’t warn you. We got of easy, actually - the rest of the North Shore is still under water. Abby says Hi. Izzy says Hi. We have a downed tree up here in Wisconsin, does that one count?

    I guess with the goal down, the boy can kiss his hoop dreams “goodbye”.

    Maybe that whole tree needs to be chain sawed. And you say “oh duh”
