The last 24 hours have been interesting. I took our dogs out shortly after I posted yesterday and noticed that there was a fire from one of the power lines in our big oak tree. I called 911 (first time ever) and they put me through to the fire department. I was verifying my address when I heard a loud pop and got disconnected. FD was there within 5 minutes and the fire was out but branches were down and the electricity has been out on our street ever since.
Last night we packed up the puppies and stayed at Beth's house. We went back over to our house this morning and the power is still out with no end in sight. We also noticed that the tree that was on fire has lost all of its branches over night. Our neighborhood is unrecognizable when you drive around. There are trees down everywhere! It is going to be a very messy clean up. Very frustrating but Beth has made us very comfortable here! Here are some pictures.
