Storms...round ??? There's been too many to count.

Yet again, another round of storms ripped through the area - with 70 mph winds and 3 inches of rain in less than 30 minutes! The item destroyed in this storm (since there is always something!!) was our trampoline. The wind was hard enough to pick it up and send it over our pool and wrapped it around the tree right next to our back patio! We are thankful, once again, that our home was spared and that no one was hurt. We had spent all day out cleaning up the yard from the destruction left by past storms and looks like we will spend this week cleaning up after this one! Thankfully no trees went down this time but there are plenty of extra large branches to clean up. I hope that everyone else made it through the storms safely since it covered the whole state of Iowa!!
