Saturday morning all we could see through the patio door was leaves. We had no idea what we were looking at. The picture below has some reflection in it, but it is the best shot we have of the branches against the windows.
Beginning to clear the deck. Remembering the deck railing that used to be at the end... totally gone.
Driveway blocked by oak.
Fence on the ground under the oak.
We aren't even sure where this is. Huge clean-up ahead.
Don and the great local tree guy consulting. Branches on the ground everywhere.
The wonderful injured oak that Tree Guy will try to save.
Wood pile: past and future! New fallen trees across the stacked logs.

I had no idea you had been having such bad weather. How frightening!But I am VERY grateful and happy that you are both safe and sound. Hope the clean-up isn't as bad as it looks from your photos. Mamma mia! Take care, Margaret (now on holiday in southern Italy)
Hi Sunshine, how is that clean up coming along? such a big job! Glad you are all safe and well and how wonderful to have hope of saving a majestic oak!
I'm looking forward to deck cooking pics :)

WOW. We had a few branches down in South Minneapolis, but nothing like you had....
crazy weather!
Hope your clean up process goes well --
Look forward to reading more on your blog.
Every time we have strong winds, I hold my breath hoping that my trees won't fall on my house or the neighbor's car. Sorry to see the destruction, but I'm glad you and Don are OK.
