I try to get close to the trees when we get anything that threatening!

So instead of hail stones, you'd rather have a tree lime fall on it???

Steve, I'll lose garage access when the wife gets her new car. I'm hoping we move next year, to somewhere that I can have an outbuilding, and Black can go in there!

Speaking of hail storms... Hey Pat, remember that one that hit your plant a couple weeks back? When my wife went to the Park-N-Go lot at the Omaha airport last weekend, the guy working there said after that big hail storm, they had to tow out 400 cars that were too damaged from the hail to drive. Wow!

I wish I didn't have the trees either, but I'd rather have one dent from a tree limb, than hundreds of little dents from hail!

Yeah, I'd heard about that. Not only did they get hail damage, but with all of the windshields that were smashed out. the cars filled with water, and ruined the electronics in them also. That would suck!!

I'm sure the car dealers were happy to have all those folks with totaled cars out shopping! Or, did some of the car dealers get hit with hail too?

One of my coworkers Expedition got struck by lighting while it was parked in his driveway... fried every electronic component in it, so they totaled it out. It was a nice looking truck too, I think it was an 06 with just under 100K on it.
