Hurricane in Grand Junction...

Talk about bad wind. I have never in my life seen the wind blow as hard as it did last Sunday in Grand Junction. We had a picnic at Lincoln Park with Brandon's family and the wind as a little annoying but we managed. After that we headed back to Grandma Greats house for a yummy spaghetti dinner. Uncle Dennis came down and my cousin Kayal and Randy came up from Fruita. We were have a great dinner when Aunt Sandra called to tell Uncle Dennis the shed in their backyard blew over and was stuck against the back door. He left to go check things out. Grandma Great headed upstairs for something and noticed something a little strange out the south window...




Her Russian Olive tree blew over along with all the dirt and bulbs that had been planted around it. Pretty crazy hah!


Poor Uncle Eric was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Don't worry he's ok!

Holy Moly! That is wild! We can't believe the tree blew over. Thanks for posting this, we are a little out of the loop here in the hospital!

I didn't know he was under that tree. He must have crawled under just for the picture. We have the limbs all drug around back now to have a bondfire some day. Love Grandma Great
