More Serious Damage

Better seen large. The greens garden turned out to be the least of our problems. Some of our 1/2 mile driveway fell over the edge into a ravine which will need major hired work to fix and on top of that a landslide which luckily my husband and his trusty tractor can fix. The down sides of living in the country!

I love the idea of a half mile drive but not so much the ravine!! You really did get hid - hope it's not all too expensive.

[Alison Tomlin]

Gosh thats looks bad. Good luck with fixing it. Looks like there's still a lot of water coming down there.

[Jane Pittenger]

@judithg @fueast yes and it's raining more as we speak

[Taephy]

situation looks bad....stay safe!

[Pam Hawkes]

My goodness. It's a good thing you have that tractor. I hope the rain lets up soon.

[Dawn Irwin]

What a mess! I agree tho, it's still worth it to live in the country.

[MamaBec]

Ouch, and it isn't over yet. We have some "leaners" and other trees are holding them up, but with the expected 50 mph winds tonight... could be iffy.

[Kerri]

Oh wow! What a mess

[Jane Pittenger]

@mamabec I think our primary leaners fell with the 100mph. Good luck tonight. Good news is that Ray Wells will come fix driveway on Monday. Bad news is it will cost a fortune

[Sharon]

Sorry about the damage but love the orange tractor!!

@judithg @fueast @tooki @pamfromcalgary @dawnirwin @mamabec @kerristephens do you know how sweet it is to have all your support?

[Robyn]

Oh, no! I didn't realize you were having slides at your place. Is everything else ok? your house and everything? I hope this rain mellows out soon.

[Jane Pittenger]

@2thgirl Me too. All else is fine. And we've got ray wells crew coming to save the driveway on Monday.

[Jane Pittenger]

@2thgirl the traffic cone on right shows where it fell off into ravine

[Shirley Banford]

Oh no! I'm so sorry for the trouble this has caused you. Hope all is well in the end.

[Robyn]

@jgpittenger wow, that's a big chunk that went down! I hope all "heals" soon. It looks like the spot where you had a gate?

[Jane Pittenger]

@2thgirl boy, you have quite the memory!

[Lara Zinn]

this reminds me a bit of Costa Rica storms... where do you live?

[Jane Pittenger]

@carrapeta00 Costal Oregon.
