I don't really relate to the 20 & 30 year olds with young families...looking to connect with other bloggers who are, like me, over 40! <br /><a href="http://oldermommystillyummy.com/" rel="nofollow">Monica, Older Mommy Still Yummy</a>Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15075862463694009635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1907885067602758337.post-69477668350757770542013-02-04T23:56:53.099-05:002013-02-04T23:56:53.099-05:00WOW!

But you're right; admiring what the wind does to the ocean from a safe distance is a lot different than experiencing up close and personal what the wind can do to your home and property.

Wind can be really scary and so strange. We once had a 1 ton tree go right over the top of our old car and land on our brand new one in a wind storm. And my neighbors wonder why I always park in the garage, every time. What I would have done to have a garage back when our car was destroyed!'Yellow Rose' Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12496382898548158316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1907885067602758337.post-44856307473865871162013-02-04T13:21:24.583-05:002013-02-04T13:21:24.583-05:00Good grief that is some damage!

They tend to hold up better than oaks and leafy trees due to their deep tap root.<br />That first photo is powerful.Alex J.
