Morning sun and the crooked pig

The dogs woke me up early enough this morning that I could catch the sun lighting up the trees on the mountain behind us.

Some dark clouds are left from yesterday's storm that came with plenty of thunder, wind and sleet, and left us chilly today.

The wind was strong enough to send things flying. The lid to the one grill is all the way back by the fire pit, 2 huge willow trees came down far from the house, but we were the lucky ones. Just a few chairs, trash cans, and tree branches needed picking up, and our metal porch pig needed a little butt lift.

The internet was out until now—but compared to all who are still without power—we were truly were the lucky ones.
