As beautiful as it is after the storm is over, the tremendous damage done to the trees was overwhelming. Standing outside it sounded like a rifle range with trees toppling and branches snapping like they were toothpicks. No electric for almost two days, using up our supply of candles and cooking outdoors on the grill. I'm glad it's over but I hear there's another storm on the way. (sigh)

Updated with pictures from the second storm. Will it never stop raining?!!!
