Tornado Alley

We came home from helping my parents move to Grandmom's house at the end of July to this:
That is half of our neighbor's tree on our deck. Luckily it didn't damage the deck and nothing fell on the house. When we first turned in to our neighbor, it seriously looked like a tornado had come straight down the road - there were trees on top of cars, on rooftops, and debris everywhere. Sean started freaking out because we have a HUGE oak tree in the back yard we swore was going to be down. Thankfully that didn't happen; only 1 branch fell from the oak and it fell straight down into our yard. It seems like it was only the pear trees all over that fell. So, the neighbor got the rest of the tree taken out yesterday and now we have NO privacy between the two houses! Oh well.
Needed a pic of the pup! She cracks me up!

OMG!!! Telling us about it and seeing it were definitely two different things! Wow!! Looks like the tree just layed down to take a nap on your deck. Good thing my grand animal was not on the deck at the time. BTW - thanks for letting her stay at my house while you were away. It was good to have a lovey dovey dog in the house for a change!
