Tree 1, Carport 0

March 2, 2007 at 9:16 PM

It's always nice when a tornado touches down in your neighborhood 10 days after you've moved in to your newly purchased house. Our carport was pretty much destroyed by a big oak tree in the front yard. We missed our symphony rehearsal, as our power was out and the babysitter was stuck at her college because of the tornado warning. Plus, some the roads were flooded and trees were down, so it was nearly impossible to get to our house. So the tree has been taken away and a tarp is coming. And we might even be able to play Brahms and Vivaldi tonight.

It's a good thing you weren't up in the tree when it fell!

Oh... Patricia!!! How awful. How traumatic! Colleen Russo, who posts here, shared with us a tornado story last year - apparently one flew right over their house and the neighborhood was trashed. I'm sure she can relate to what you're feeling right now.

I grew up in Kansas, so I can appreciate the tornado fear part, but never got hit the way you did.

Um... welcome to the neighborhood?!
