what a storm!

Well, today we got our first big fall storm! I was driving home and the hail got to be so big that I had to pull over. I really thought that my windshield was going to break. It was raining so hard and the wind was so hard that the rain was coming down sideways and tree branches were falling all over the place. When we got home this is what our yard and street looked like!



Our front yard/sidewalk/street/river

Our mailbox is on the house side of the sidewalk, you can't even see the sidewalk in this picture.

The street in front of our house

My back porch

The backyard




It destroyed our little watermelon patch :(

Hey, we get hail like that! I heard from someone that South Dakota is 4th in the nation for the worst hail storms. Yay for us :)I bet you guys could use the rain though after your hot summer!

OMHeck-that's alot of water, you would think you were back in Utah! We had hard rain yesterday, our yard is messy with neighbors pine needles & lots of walnuts,

ok never mind you can keep your rain now that I see your pictures I will keep our little snow in the mountains. It reminds me of the hot summer storms we grew up playing in there.
