hit Fruitport HARD!

I just had power, tv, and internet restored today but no phone for a while yet. We have a tree in our garage that also tried really hard to get into the bedroom, but only managed to break the windows and make a mess. We're lucky. Many in the neighborhood have lost entire homes to our HUGE 3-5 century old oak trees. They were pushed over and snapped off all around the Village. Several homes have been cut in half by trunks going through all the way down to the ground on both sides. Very few injuries though.

I'll try to get some of the pictures up when I can.

I'll probably only be online a little for the next week while we get the house back to normal and figure out who to hire to rebuild the garage.

Since you survived the storm and the tree, I think you should celebrate by rebuilding the garage even bigger than it was before!

You're going to need a 4 post lift to keep those trucks running. Don't let your insurance company hose you.

Glad to hear no one was hurt. As for rebuilding, it's not like you don't have any time on your hands.:rolleyes:

Sorry to hear about the damage. We have had very little storm activity were I live this summer.
