All Hail Austin....
Yep, we got a nice big hailstorm here last night..I haven't been in a hailstorm in years, I remember picking up little nuggets and putting them in a baby food jar when I was little, and then they all melted together into a monged block of ice...Usually the 'big' storms go around Austin, but we got some nice damage last night...
Well, I don't mean US per se, we did inventory this morning and some of our bluebonnet guys are hurting, but our cars and windows are ok...(at least I think mine is, it was covered under a car cover)...the entire neighborhood looks like it was hit with a 'green confetti' parade...our trees were shredded, although they don't look too bad...no limbs broken, even the blackberries survived...but when we stood by the sliding glass window, the sound was like a dozen people were throwing rocks as hard as they could at the glass...I thought the door was going to break (I was not standing by it, no)...I've never seen the cats run so fast..Poor Dexter got stranded and rode the storm out under our deck (pictured)...he came in wet, but ok...I called him a million times, but he was too scared to come in...now its dark and cold out and I hear sirens going off like last night...its a crazy Easter weekend, for sure...hope yours is a little less dramatic...
