AFTER-MATH




So we (along with most of Tulsa) are still dealing with picking up after the ice storm that hit in December. Ryan, Miri and I just spent the morning in the back yard picking up branches - and we still more to go! I am amazed at the destruction that occurred in a few long hours of ice breaking trees. I am also amazed that we were not seriously hurt. The storm started very early on a Sunday and by Monday trees and branches were cracking like crazy. Me in my brilliance got the camera to take pictures with the branches falling all around! Today Ryan and I pulled up several "twigs" that were impaled into the ground 10" or so deep. Even one of those "twigs" hitting someone would have caused serious damage. At my parents house they and the neighbors had to get out at least three times just to clear the common driveway they all share so trips to the store, work and other necessities happen. We are extremely blessed to have made it through the storm without any major issues.
