Just a wee bit windy!!!

We had a little bit of excitement here this afternoon, a small tornado passed through our back yard…

snapping a post and blowing down part of our back fence! Now we have a wonderful view of mud! It also knocked over our wheelie bins(rubbish bins) and there is rubbish everywhere;o) DH cleaned up all the big branches that fell onto the road with the tractor before the emergency services arrived 30 minutes later Lol

I am glad that you are safe!!! Mud, ugh. We used to have a bunch of horses. The mud would actually make me look forward to the hard ground of winter. But then I would remember breaking ice...that's not much fun either.

How exciting! Glad no one was hurt, there has been such wild weather everywhere today.
Batten down the hatches, I think we're getting a few more days of wild weather!

OMG Michelle
I'm so glad you are all OK!
Where did you hide? Where the kiddies frightened? And, last question, do you get tornados often?
You sure must have quick service there to have had someone arrive 30 minutes later. My son is a lineman and he has been working 16 hour days since Monday in order to get Michigan's electric services back on after a storm. No tornados though.

Please take care!
