Trees Everywhere!



On Thursday Maine (and a large part of the Northeast I believe) was hit by an ice storm. Thankfully we only lost power here for 2 hours, but Joe's family (including his parents and his sister's family) are expected to get power back today or even later! Crazy! His brother had a tree fall on his house (and will like need to replace their entire mudroom)! Sorry guys. We also lost a large tree in the storm, but it feel back into the little wooded area behind our house instead of into our yard. And technically the tree (although right up against our land) is owned by our neighbors (who also own the land it fell onto). The large root ball sticking up right along our grass line is sort of unsightly though- so hopefully they will take care of it- or at least let us chop it up (and keep for fire wood)!
