When we were still in Illinois visiting my family, we had a horrible storm. Below are some pics and also a link to some video clips that Eric posted. We also found a baby squirrel whose home was probably that tree. He was small, bald and injured, eyes still closed. He was still alive so we called the vet to see if they would take him and try and save him. They put us in contact with a family that takes in wildlife that needs help. And we took the little guy out to them. We hope he makes it.
Here is the video-

There was a half a tree that landed on my parents roof, shown in some of the pics, and there was a tree struck by lightning in my Grandparents yard in the other pics, but there are two of standing water on the street we live on. It was a mess today. The tree on my parents house cause only slight damage, and it has been removed and repaired already. Ill post some pics of that process another day,it was pretty neat.






























We are home now and tired. We had a great visit though!
