    About 5 am this morning I had a big old spruce tree hit my house, from what I can see so far there doesn't look like any damage was done. The part that hit was only 5" in diameter so I'm sure grateful for that, but that sucker is gonna BURN!!!:fire:
    Pics when daylight arrives :doh:

    If and when it finally stops raining, it will be time to search the woods for fresh fallen firewood. The ground is saturated and we have had lots of wind.

    Glad to hear nobody was hurt and the damage was minimal.

    I've got to work a half day today so not sure how much I can tackle, I know I'm going to at least get the broken top that's resting on the house off and onto the ground:tree:

    Kill it with fire! Hope the damage isn't too bad.

    We had a possible tornado here about 2 miles west of me. My neighbor has siding missing. Guess I need to put pants on, and go do a walk around.
