Ice Storm 2007


This is the tree in our backyard, between dad's butchering (pruning) earlier this fall and the ice storm we're not sure this tree is going to make it.




This is a frozed bradford pear in our front yard.





A frozen leaf.



Our neighbor's tree that we are praying that makes it and doesn't fall and break the fence.


More fallen trees. As I'm sitting here blogging I can hear tree branches snapping from the weight of the ice.

This was a beautiful bradford tree our next door neighbor used to have. Thankfully it didn't fall on his car or house.


Our neighbor across the street had a nice surprise this afternoon when he came home. The tree split due to the weight of the ice.


We've had an ice storm last night. Over 200,000 people in Tulsa are out of power, thankfully, we are not one of them. While driving home from work this afternoon and seeing all the trees with ice and many broken branches it feels like the snow queen from Narnia visited our area.
