Massive Wind Storm

We had a massive wind storm in Boise yesterday. We knew we would end up with some tumble weeds in our yard. This has become a normal occurrence for us since we moved here. We haven't had the left side of our yard fenced in yet. We have them coming this week actually to put in the fence so its quite ironic that we got this wind storm and ended up with this many tumble weeds. I actually had just cleaned the yard of them about a week ago. Scott was just shocked and couldn't believe it. I just had to laugh about it. So this is what's left in the backyard after the wind storm. It's actually a little bit worst because we took these pictures about 1/2 way through the storm. There is no break at all across the fence now. It's completely covered with tumble weeds.


Some of the tumble weeds that got stuck between the recycle bin and the garbage can. Scott had to get out the rack so we could move them so we could get out the door.

Unfortunately they were back again. They were taller than Rachel and she just stood at the sliding door wondering what the heck was happening.
The Side Yard

Most of the fence - Anyone need a tumble weed?

The space on the right is now completely full of tumble weeds.
There is no seeing the fence at all now.


The view out the side living room window.

Check out another view out the window.

Did you lose your tree? Yep you did and now it's in our yard. Please come get it.

Rachel's swing set stopped it from going any further.


We decided we probably better not let it get any more momentum to hit the other fence. Check out Scott's look. he he he He is actually getting ready to throw it over the fence.
