Here's an attempt at some of our pictures! Hopefully they'll come out backyard before, backyard after, big oak down, and little oak down.

SAndy, so sad that you lost so many trees!!!
I was in Corpus Christi today and they have 10 tons of debris a day floating up on Corpus Christi Beach. The debris is people's lives, toys, clothes, boards, all sorts of things. Someone found a 3 wheeler off Matagorda Island. It's supposed to be the same a Port O'Connor. No bodies yet, but lots of stuff. So sad!!

Thank goodness none of the trees came down on the house. That would have been a real mess with all of the rain. Besides losing a few trees it looks like you'll be in good shape soon. Thanks for the update!

Not much longer Sandy. You're doing good. You have a very nice place. I so happy that your home was spared from the falling trees. This fall would be a good time to plant some more....you'll always remember what year you planted them and what hurricane caused you to do so. I'm just glad you and your family are okay and you're still here with us.

This storm was really bad for oaks in our area. Hubby and I are planning to replant, but are debating trying a different tree. We realized last evening that the live oak we planted after Hurricane Rita (2005) is dead too. It's about 12' tall and was blown over. I guess it broke the roots loose or something. Hubby braced it back up the day after the storm, but the leaves are brown and dead.
At least our fruit trees weren't harmed. What's a good shade tree that bears fruit?
