our yard after the derecho...

one of the maple trees lost 4 large limbs out of the top...

the almost took out the willow tree...


the guys got them pulled off of the willow, cut up and piled by the road...


north line of the property had a tree come down...

didn't hit anything...


the big walnut along the field had one limb down and 3 others are just hanging up there and need to be taken care of...


the hybrid popular/ cottonwood lost one large limb at the very top...


but its caught in the tree behind it...

we don't go there until it comes down...


the willow lost a couple of small limbs from the maple top falling, but didn't hurt the main trunk at all...

and the rose bed was just fine...

the downed tree is behind the rose bed...

we spent the 4th weekend picking up sticks and mowing the leaf clusters...

we got 3.1 inches of much needed rain from all the storms that went through over a few days...

our 4th celebration for our town is this next Saturday...

so no canceled plans or rearranging the scheduled events...

we had a large doe in the yard yesterday right after lunch...

she was so pretty...

hope your 4th was awesome and you had some much needed time with family and friends...

have good days...
