We were out of the path of the storm that just hit Louisiana, and although we were buttoned up against more water, there's always concern after a giant limb has pierced the roof in several places and weather like that looms. The estimates are all in, and it seems we were quite lucky, if any aspect of having a major portion of a tree fall on your house is lucky. The damage will cost less than $3000 to repair, as there seems to be no major structural damage outside of a hip-beam and two rafters broken. The bill for the crane and wood cutters will be considerably higher than that, and most of it is covered by insurance. The contractor begins work on Monday, and while my son has lost use of his room, he's making a nest in the Living Room right now, and that's the major disruption to our lives. Again, thank you for the many notes of concern, I tried to answer some, but I have had a interruption to my email service this past week as well, and as you know when it rains, it pours.
