What an evening of Mother Nature. After Darrell & I had finished checking the hog traps and putting out chum, we were talking about how nice it would be to get some rain. We had heard that there were thunderstorms north in Lampasas & San Saba county, hoping it may come to our area. Darrell said it could, but the weatherman said "naw", and I sided with the weatherman and I lost.LOL Sometimes you have to believe the guy who knows. In less than 10 minutes from Darrell's house to mine, it hit the fan. He calls, Wolff get home fast as I have tree limbs blowing everywhere. About the same time, my truck is rocking and almost rolling. I turn into my driveway sideways and honestly, my truck was bouncing. Call wife, tell her to stay inside, I am in the driveway. Truck bouncing and tree limbs going thru the air. I bail out of the truck, get inside and everything seems calm, until I look out the back door. Everything has moved. BBQ grill is blocking the back door. Look out the NW window! Some of my last treasured oaks are on the ground. After losing 69 oaks to oak wilk, this storm makes matters worse. After the storms passes, I walk outside and survey some. Trees down, limbs down, wooden fence partially gone. But all in all we faired pretty good. Not far, things are different. My son's camper has been moved several feet and sustained some damage, lost many oak trees, and other damage that light tomorrow will show. We and neighbors cleared the county road for emergency vehicles. Many trees were down. But...we are thankful no one that we know of were injured. But, Mother Nature delivered us another blow, but.....we also received some much needed rain. Hope all others are also safe.
