Whats Better In Climax Than A Little Hail?

Yesterday was my... second, I think, encounter with a hailstorm. There were wind gusts up to 55-60 mph and rain was actually pushed up under our window sills and into our house. Kinda funny actually. I challenged my brother to see who could hold their arm out into the hail the longest, but neither of us tried, but we did almost throw our cat outside to see what would happen.

After the 15 min storm had passed by we soon found out that the biggest tree in our neighbors farm had split in half! It was an amazing sight... to see a tree that had been there for all my childhood and at times to watch the multitudes of birds flock there to now be reduced to a McDonald's sign (cause it looked like a big M). Also, our other neighbor Harold had a tree fall on his shelter beside his log cabin. Boy was he lucky; the tree was propped onto the building and not through it!

Additional fun fact of the day: we were watching Jeopardy and they had a religious category with the last question being "What are Quakers". The producers were probably snickering when they thought of putting that in there... "no one will get this, haha. they're probably extinct by now". False.
