Hurricane Ike, Day 2

Day 2 started with some looks around the house for damage. We knew we had a large limb fall in the back yard and that we had the top of a pine tree in the driveway. Here are some better pictures we were able to get with some daylight.

This is a view from the kitchen window. Half of the window is covered by the branch that fell and you can see our grass covered by limbs and leaves.

If you look to the right of the two large trees on the left, you can get a little better view of the upside down pine tree in the driveway. The main trunk of that tree top can be seen in between the two large trees on the left of the picture.

Here is a before and after view of the front yard.

Now, I know this picture does not fit in with the rest, but hurricanes not only knock out trees, they knock out teeth too. Avery and I were sitting on the couch after the worst part of the storm went through and out came her tooth. The tooth fairy was nice enough to pay her a visit in Bryan.
