July 2nd

Well...blog posting has been spaced out a bit.  But here we go...I've got some Judy Garland music on and my pictures loaded.  Let's do this post! 

The 2nd of this month we went over to our grandma's house to help clean up some damage caused by high winds the night before.  My aunt and her son also came to help out and together we cleaned up the farm.

Also, Grandma had a very neat silo on her farm.  Apparently, she did have 80+ mile per hour wind (or a twister) that night, for the concrete silo tumbled down to the ground.  Sad it was; we thought that silo would be there for a hundred more years!  I mean it was solid.  So it goes, however.

 

 Grandma didn't just have a few limbs down...no, she had branches the size of small trees on the ground.  We called Dad and he came over to pull the "limbs" away with a pickup.

This dumpster was blown from the highline pole on the left to where it sits in the picture. 
 Pretty amazing.

We worked from around 11 to four that afternoon, and were treated with a great tasting watermelon provided by Grandma.  We were all very thankful that Grandma, her car, garage, and house were untouched by all the happenings, and we praise God for it.  : )
