Lattice fence totally blown out, table umbrella apparently launched like a rocket since it was across the yard, deck furniture tossed about like tennis balls, and our 15lb pet dragon (statue ) was laying down on his side with his poor wings broken off. Our neighbors yard didn't look so good either.

Like I said, whatever it was, we missed it.

These simple thunderstorms around here this summer have been no joke this year.
Dang son, h8 to hear stories like that. Hope your insurance comes through for you.

We were getting some pretty intense winds yesterday & I was getting kinda paranoid after recent events ... but nuttin happened.

I was suprised that all the lattice work I put in around the deck didn't get trashed but it only suffered 2 small breaks that could be remedied by wood glue & finishing nails.
