The Storm

Last night we had a huge storm. It was full of all of the fun things like thunder and lightning and even hail. The incredible winds even knocked the power out for about an hour and a half. But that is not the only thing that the wind knocked out... my sweet little garden is ruined. 15 foot sunflowers broken, tomatoes falling off of their vines. We got some pretty neat video though:
(warning: TURN VOLUME DOWN!)


This second video is a lot shorter.. I thought that the storm was basically over, so I went outside to check out the damage.



The highlight of losing the sunflowers that we grew from seeds is that we now have a beautiful bouquet on the table... there was so many that even our neighbors have bouquets too!

Sorry about your garden! But look at the bright side: now you have a clean slate to work with for your yard contest, and you're not in the sweltering heat here!
