Eating Alfresco and getting to #5 3/29/2019

On Wednesday, March 13, while we were enjoying a visit from Anne’s sister Marcia and her daughter, Lily we were jolted by a loud noise that sounded like something had hit the roof of our house. That’s exactly what it was. A tree from a neighbor’s house came out by the roots and fell on our house. It made several holes in our roof. See the photo. Fortunately, no one was injured. About thirty minutes after the tree fell the rains came and we really began taking on water. There was quite a bit of damage to carpets, ceiling and walls not to mention the roof itself. The insurance company has been great and easy to deal with. Right now we are still in the home but when work begins we will probably move into a hotel. The last thing any of us need is to breathe in a lot of dust especially my little wife. For now we’ve set up camp in our master bedroom and things aren’t too bad. Anne has been really weak from chemo so she hasn’t been out of bed too much anyway.
