Monday night around 7PM or so there was a very high wind that came through. I stood at the window in the bedroom that looks over the backyard and watched my tree fly apart! Tonight we went into the yard after work and saw that 3 posts were
snapped off at the base on the fence and a board missing. Tony and I were going to the orchard tonight to pick peaches but found out that the ones we want won't be ready till next week so he has gone to the store to get what he needs to repair the fence.
Tony surveying the damage and obviously trying to determine just how to get those broken branches out of the tree. He has decided to buy a chain saw to cut the branches but the trick will be......how to get up there!!
Hard to see the big broken branch but believe you me, it was a big branch and this side of our tree is becoming rather sparse! I am thankful that we just got the wind. I sure feel sorry for those in Boise who lost their homes due to the fire which was fueled by the wind.

Wow - the fence looks like it's going to tip over. I can see the tree branch if I double click on the pic to enlarge it. That's not going to be fun to get at. Good luck!
Good luck with the repairs & all - hope they go smoothly! (and safely!!!) I bet Dad's pretty jazzed about getting a new tool, though! ;-)
