Re: Whopper of a storm tonight! and Happy Birthday!

Cathy: I'm just glad you are okay...that storm was something. Sorry to
hear about your tree but otherwise sounds like your gardens are pretty
intact. What luck!

Did we ever get hammered! At 1AM we were awakened by all three cats
<br>trying to crawl in bed with us. We heard hail (close to 1" diameter)
<br>for at least 30 minutes. When we woke this morning, 1/3 of our large
<br>sycamore was down. Fortunately, it did not land on the house, but
<br>between the two koi ponds (they were not damaged either). I spent
all <br>morning cleaning up the back yard, but DH has to get to work on
the <br>tree with the chain saw. Amazingly, my vegetable garden was
minimally <br>affected.<br>Cathy<br><br>On Monday, July 21, 2003, at
