On December 1st we had a huge wind storm. The power went out early in the morning and was out until about 8:30 at night. We were very fortunate and didn't have much damage as you can see below. My sister lost most of her fence. The neatest thing though was after the storm, when the whole community came together and cleaned up. It looked like a hurricane came through. We where a category 2 hurricane. I've been in a Category one hurricane in North Carolina. We took a drive the same morning and I could not believe all the damage, so many trees lost. It was a mess. Tractor Trailers lined the side of the freeway, for a few miles. And within a few days it looked like nothing had happened. Ok not exactly nothing people still had missing siding and shingles, tree stumps, etc. When I went to Melinda's on Sunday to watch jack people were out cleaning up, sawing trees, doing all sorts of work together. It was very touching. Something you never see on Sunday, trucks and trailers hailing debree. Lots of traffic. So crazy. We where supposed to get another big storm that night, but thankfully it turned out to be nothing.
