Looking Back

It was July 1, 2011 and we were enjoying a nice grilled dinner on our deck, when all of a sudden a storm blow in.

As the winds blew in fast and furious, it was all we could do to hold our plates down when the storm nearly picked up our table. It was at that moment we heard this big crack. One of our 70-year old pine trees along the lake bank just snapped! Today, I finally got adventurous and took photos of the unfortunate tree that went down.

We still have one large pine tree along the lake bank that survived the storm last July. The absent tree has left a new view of Tainter Lake. I took this photo late today after exploring our lake frontage. It's hard to believe that was six months ago! How time flies......
