The night before last we had some storms through the night. About 5 am the floor fan we have in our bedroom went
berserk, blowing really fast and loud. This woke us up and then the fan stopped. A few minutes later, the ceiling fan also went
berserk, spinning super fast! We later found the culprit...this tree. It's funny how electricity can get so messed up and make your electronics do odd things! Anyways, it ruined the back porch as you can see. And ripped some siding off the back of the house.

This is how we first realized a tree had fallen. Look at the view out the back door!
haha!

The power lines were also down in our driveway.

This is the connection to the electric meter, which was ripped out of the side of the house. This is why we didn't have power all day.

It bent our satellite dish so we have no TV for now until they can come fix it!

We were very lucky though the tree didn't fall on our truck. Look how close it was!

It did fry our wine refrigerator. It doesn't work at all anymore! So sad! We were very lucky our new big TV was okay. We bought a surge protector when we bought the new TV. The surge protector got fried but saved the TV and our
Wii! I cannot tell you how bad that surge protector smelled! Like burning plastic! So everyone...go get surge protectors for your expensive electrical items!
