Thanks everyone for your replies. I'm sorry to be so late getting back to this thread. We now have snow and severely cold temps but we have power.

Our yard is still littered with large limbs, some the size of half a tree. The guy who said he was coming to clean it up hasn't showed and the Insurance adjuster hasn't showed yet either!!! You should see the streets around here, they are all lined with limbs waiting to be picked up. The city just signed a contract with some company for 2 and 1/2 million to pick up all the limbs in the city. Those of us in the county may be waiting a long time yet.

It's very sad to drive down the highway and see the top limbs of most trees broken off. They all look so strange.

Since the Insurance guy didn't show up, my husband finally climbed up on the roof the other day and discovered that a limb had fallen like a spear through the roof into the attic. He had to place something under there to catch the rain/snow until it can be repaired.

Maybe I'll post some pictures soon. Thanks for caring everyone.
