We got a lot of sticks down from the trees.
We were able to walk Macy between the bands of rain and the wind.
Nothing real bad like tornadoes and such.

Our neighbor behind us has a large cherry tree just 3 foot from the lot line. I've been throwing away that tree one stick at a time every since we've been here. LOL

I'd like to see it come down, it has always made a mess in our yard.
I even put him in contact with a guy that would harvest it but it had too many limbs making it too knotty.
