No hail, please........

A lovely rain today - just what the flowers need.  The only thing that isn't welcome is hail and I guess that will happen sometimes whether we like it or not.  I talked to a friend yesterday, she lives in another part of town, and they REALLY got hit with hail a few days after we did.  But theirs was much worse, broke out car windows, ruined roofs, destroyed a lot of property. 
Then today I saw this little settlement on the Home Depot parking lot.  They're here to settle claims in a big way.  Also saw a semi parked on a parking lot that said HAIL ESTIMATES - hailusa.com   Boy!! I'm glad we didn't get it that bad!     Diane

It had to have been bad to set up a parking lot venue for estimates on repairs! I'm grateful though, as I know you are, that you were spared that damage. Enjoy your more peaceful day Diane!

So glad you came out okay! When I lived in Wheatridge, CO. I drove to Arvada to do some shopping and stopped when I saw what looked like a field of baseballs. What the heck? It was hail! I had just missed it. I turned right around and went home. Kit
