wind -1 playsets-0

i will never forget this day. this happened during our storm season in 2013. i want to say it was in march or april and we had a massive hail storm hit us. we had baseball sized hail, 80mph winds and some minor flooding just slamming into our home. the hail was so loud that my husband and i couldnt even hear eachother talk when we were standing only a few feet away from one another. our son blaze was terrorized wanting to stay on the couch under a blanket calling for me. at the time we had a trampoline that was bound to the ground and a jungle gym quite aways on the east side of it. my husband just asked me if i thought the trampoline would hold when just half a second later it was picked up like a Frisbee and thrown into the jungle gym. it managed to lift the gym straight up into the air and it tapped our storm shelter. it then tumbled and they completely wrapped into eachother making a mangled mess. Blaze watched the whole thing and he was just so sad and devastated. he just said to me "mommy its all gone!"  dont worry he got a new gym but we felt since we get so much strong winds here we felt it was best not to get another trampoline.
