The Fire Trucks had to come because the branchs fell on the wires…
This tree fell on the upstairs apartment, and knocked down wires..

It would seem you're okay and for that I'm glad. Amazing shots--hard to believe, sometimes, how cruel Mother Nature can be.

Scary and sad, but I am looking at these photos with great respect. Respect for nature and for those who had to fight against it and have to rebuild their homes, their lives...

Wow - Ike was still doing a ton of damage there too. We had a ton of rain and couple of trees down as well! That was one big storm.

Oh my! I didn't realize it hit you that badly. We didn't feel it, just some wind. Good report! :)

Wow, that's amazing the punch that Ike brought clear up there. My daughter and her family have left Houston, and will be staying in Dallas this week, then with my folks in San Angelo after that, until all the power and water is back up and running.
PS, your first picture of that tree, it looks like a bunch of cilantro!! I just bought some, so maybe that's what's on my mind. (check out my other blog tonight to see how I put it all to good use : photoblog.com/veganess)
