Quick Update

Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers during this time.

We were grateful to have an electrician fix all of our electrical damage on Wednesday. So now all of our power is in working order and we have hot water again!

We still have a crew of guys here everyday tending to the tree demolition and clean up. They are making great progress, hopefully they will be finished soon.

We still need to have the phone company come out to reattach our box and lines, but thankfully they all work, they are just hanging from the house and in the yard.

To answer a question many of you have had, no, our home insurance company is not covering this damage. They cover damage done to the home, not the trees. If the home had been damaged by the trees, then they would cover that, but we are responsible for everything in the yard. I have been working very hard at the Outback to try to pay for all this damage and we have had to juggle other funds and savings around to make ends meet and pay the workers. However, once again we are grateful that the damage was not any worse than it was and that we are all safe.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
