Ahh, the perfect ending to the perfect day...I went to lunch with a friend around noon; when we came back at 1, the sky was piled high with what I thought was good weather cloud. Unfortunately, as happens in Texas, some sudden and severe storms developed and hit us here in the north part of town. The shot above is during a lull in the rain.
The other shot is what happened to my 20 year old Bradford pear tree in my front yard. Very disappointing, but I should have been more prepared for it; Bradfords are notorious for being susceptible to wind damage, and this one had already had a major branch torn off before I moved in. I think there's little chance of saving the tree; luckily, I'd planned on having landscaping people here next week - it looks like there will be a slightly bigger range of choices than I first planned.
