Storms

Last night was one of the worst storms I have ever had to drive through. I was driving an old 15 passenger van with very bad shocks. The weather was very windy, lots of lightening, and lots of rain, (for Bullhead). I couldn't drive faster than 30 mph or the wind would blow the van in the other lane, literally. In fact it blew one of the palo verde trees over. It was a pretty big tree that the kids had a rope swing in. So, being the young college student living with the 70+ year old couple, I got the task of taking care of it. Actually I didn't mind very much, except that at 11:00 it was already 108+ degrees. Good thing is that I was able to use an old reciprocating saw on most of the branches. I only had to use the axe on the thicker branches and the trunk.
