with the ringing of a new year came a huge storm with winds wailing.  the winds were stronger than i had seen in a long, long time.  trees were uprooted, branches were torn off trunks, and the roads were littered with debris.

there is still some debris out there on the road.  i keep forgetting to bring my camera into work, but there is a tree outside work that looks like someone has pulled it out of the ground.  it is lying on the side of the lawn, roots exposed.

it hasn’t rained very hard since, but i’m glad that i didn’t have to be out on the roads during those conditions.
