Don,

Whereabouts do you live? I'm in the northern part of Andover, just south of
Oak Grove between Round Lake Blvd and Hanson.

I was fortunate enough to come out of the storm unscathed but a coworker of
mine who lives off of Bunker had two nice large trees down and most of his
privacy fence was destroyed. He will need a new roof, new siding, and new
facia due to the hail. Our work (in north Minneapolis) was out of power
Thursday, so I spent the day at his house practicing my chainsaw skills.
The whole day there I heard nothing but chainsaws and the sound of the news
helicopters overhead. I hope he has good insurance.

I have a fellow church-goer who has seven trees down in her place in
Brooklyn Park. I'll be over there soon to assess the situation. Maybe some
can be saved, but we will see.

It was good to see all the neighbors come to each other's aid.

I'm in Fridley, just west of East River Road and south of Osborne
Road. I think Andover got hit harder than we did, though there are
still parts of Fridley that are without power.
