Tree!

We are absolutely fine.

However, Tuesday night a big storm came through our area.  Lightning hit a tree in our backyard.  The tree fell and took out the railing of our back deck and the outside corner of our house and some of our patio furniture.  It knocked off the gutter, a few shingles, and some of the roof decking.  It did not mess up any of the interior of the house or any of the trusses. 

Kevin and his friend from work got the chainsaws out and cut up most of the tree. 

Our internet and house phone are also out until later this week.

I'll post pictures later this week.  I am just so thankful it fell the way it did.  At a slightly different angle it would have fallen into the house or into our master bedroom. 
I am just so thankful we are all ok.  Everything else is replaceable.
