Welcome to our house, all cleaned up and ready to go:


Our living room couch before: [after picture coming later]

The overall view with Sage building the front columns

More of the aftermath of the rainstorm and all the gravel that got carried
down. Plus the nephews the night that Carlee's family stayed at the house
cuz they didn't have any power. We didn't have power, but we have a
generator.

Here's the extent of the damage. First, the tree across 157th where it
intersects with Simonds Road. This tree is what caused all the problems.

This is the view of the tree almost across 155th, where it intersects with
Simonds Road. Behind me is the front entrance of Inglemoor High School.

This is the view from the intersection of 155th & Simonds Road, looking down
toward 157th. There are three arrows to show the three snapped telephone
poles and the last arrow is pointing to where the tree (from the first picture)
fell that took them all out. Followed by a shot further down the road.

The installed bar fridge, doing it's job.


The makings of a living room: recliner & HDTV. That's just
my PC monitor pinch-hitting for the real TV that will occupy the media center.

The is the exit sign that I brought back from Mark's house when his mum & I
cleaned it out. I think I may have technically stolen it off the house
since it was a fixture on the house and the house was sold at that point....

The working steam shower, and the one missing tile.
