And The Forest is No More

On Tuesday evening, we experienced a terrible wind storm.  Wind speeds in our area were measured at 170 km/hr (102 mph).  The storm began around 9:30 pm and finally eased off around midnight.  With the exception of a few very sturdy (or maybe just lucky) trees, all of the pine forest surrounding Heather and Mike's property is gone.  I can't describe the devastation in words.  I have taken many pictures and as soon as I have them organized, I will post them.
