A day for the ages

When we first were thinking about moving to this field we were told that rarely was there any wind here. Well it seems that's been changing lately a good deal and today nearly blew us away.

With a wind warning out and gusts in the 50+ kms, the rain was running sideways.
The garden pretty much got mowed over, the yard light on the church blew off and missed me, and our 55 ft Internet tower buried in dirt and mounted to the wall, moved 8-10 inches at the base.
Got a little scary around here.

Tonight it's still raining, but it doesn't look like it was such a crazy day out there.
Acting like nothing happened.
