Irene you little B.....!

We had quite an afternoon yesterday all courtesy of Irene. We lost power and the telephone also even if we had taken care of plugging in an old fashion plug in the wall phone. We read and hung out in the living room with the kitties. Then I heard and felt a big thump, I knew right away what it was....

The tree behind the house had lost a limb! A big branch.

It fell right in my shade garden.

                                That's the other end

It squashed 2 large hostas.

In case you were wondering , we are still home. Dan wrote the condo place to make sure it was still standing and decided to push the reservation to tomorrow. I didn't quite understand this at first, but after we saw all the damage everywhere it was a super good idea.

Gotta go I'm in the middle of packing!
