This is looking from the dock
up to the house. Eight trees are in that pile that are pushed over. |
Same view but further out. These
trees did not break but were blown over by the roots. |
Looking down from the deck,
you can see that the view is a fair bit wider. The tornado, at least, picked
the right trees to blow down. The raspberry bushes got squished though. |
We have a new cave!!! Once I
get all the trees cleared away, maybe I can make some steps in the limestone
rock. |
This was a very tall pine tree
until the top was twisted off. The top very conveniently fell between the
tree trunk and the steps. There's three more trees behind it with the tops
twisted off too. |
The cave again. Could use
it for guests I suppose :)
|
Lots of other damage to
trees all over the property. This one's split.
|
Ow!!!
|
The view is better now.
|
This was really spooky. After
the storm, we went down by the waterfront to survey the damage and found
this pair of brass hands hanging on to a branch in a tree just out of reach.
We are going to leave them there. The neighbours have speculated that they
may have come from an old cemetery in the woods up on top of the hill. |
