Yes, Dear Reader, yes we did hear the trees. You may have heard of the Great Houston Floods of April, 2016. It was a Carpenters-worthy Rainy Day Monday.
We’re smack-dab in the middle of this weather phenomenon, but being the unicorns that we are, our experience is trees falling on us and bringing water in through holes in the roof, rather than the rising water that our fellow citizens are experiencing.
We had a rather exciting time in the wee hours of Monday morning. Mother Nature decided we had too many pine trees, and it was time to address that situation, immediately! Here are some photos. And lest you think we are ingrates, I must say that we are feeling incredibly blessed that no people or pets were harmed. Property damage can be repaired. Living beings are a little harder to replace.




















We might just need to listen to the Carpenters to get our blues on.
I scrolled through that with increasing horror. How awful for you. So sorry it happened but glad to hear no-one was hurt.
