Another big storm system swept through Oakland on the night of May 25. We had a huge branch go down in the yard at Casa Blanca when furious winds passed through town, so when the storm subsided I headed to the new house to check for damages. When I reported the damages to Mike I said "If I could have guessed a tree that was young and healthiest and I thought we could never lose in a storm - that is the one that went down."
The Linden tree on the south side of the house snapped off just above the ground. There were cases of similar damage in the path across town. We are hoping to replace it with a fruit tree sooner rather than later. Again, nothing hit the house for which we are thankful.
