Damn ice...

Wow... my backyard looks like a warzone. We have had SOOO much ice and snow here in Wichita, KS it is unbelievable. We have tree limbs and trees down all over my backyard, and all over town. You can stand outside and it sounds like rifle shots going off everywhere; then you realize it is tree limbs snapping off. Pretty impressive. I could definitely do without it though.

I walked around the backyard last night to survey the damage. I heard a loud cracking sound (sounded like a rifle) looked up and got the heck out of the way. A large amount of ice had just shaken loose from the tree way up top and came crashing down. I figured it was time to go back in the house at that point. :)

My wife has taken some pictures of the damage and sent them, but she has obviously sent WAY too many and they have to be way too big as they are taking forever to download in this email. Gotta warn her about that one. :) I am going to save this post as a draft and revisit it once I can get the pictures downloaded!

Ok... we have some pics, but they do NO justice whatsoever to the damage around here:
