Charley!
Friday 13th
August 2004


Two houses down the street from us.  The big oak tree in the back yard came up by the roots and landed on the house. 



A beautiful sunny day and a rainbow following a brief shower makes the horror of the previous night surreal.

Left:  A wonderfully welcome sight!  Progress Energy crews work 16 hour days to bring power back to 600,000 Central Florida homes.

After four days without power, air conditioning and ice are luxuries indeed!  Not to mention a hot shower.
