Wind Tunnel

Our backyard is a wind tunnel. So far since we moved here 3 years ago we have had funny and real damage to our backyard and backyard items because of the wind.

Here is a quick summary:

1. Replaced a entire section of fence.

2. Broken umbrella

3. Glass in table smashed to a million tiny pieces

4. Lost one blow up Spider man pool last year

5. Lost another blow up pool this year - but husband went and found it WAY down the street

6. Gas grill caught on fire because it blew over and landed on the knob

There are many other things that we have lost or been ruined but basically if it gets windy or a storm is coming I get anxiety because I wonder what is going to break, get lost, or cost us money to fix.

Last week we had a bad storm blow in at 10:00 at night and Brian and I were outside putting the gas grill back, filling the pool with more water to weight it down, fix the fence, and put the chairs inside.
