Day 202...Tattered and Torn

Day 202
We went to bed last night without power, but were just certain it would be back on soon...
Not so...
Woke this morning, still no electricity, and thought surely it would be anytime...
Not so...
Shortly after 17 hours had passed the power came back on!!!
Those clouds I posted a photo of last night brought us a war zone of leaves, branches and trees down throughout our neighborhood, but less that 3/10 of an inch of rain... :(
Rain is certainly what we needed...not the power outage.
But, all is well now, no harm done as far as food spoilage
and that's a good thing!
I know too many people who've gone through that! 
I'm so thankful we didn't.
Here's a photo of that perfect little Sunflower I posted two days ago...
(except for the plucked out leaves courtesy of the Yellow Finch, anyway)
She's not so perfect anymore but survived the storm nonetheless!
This is her reflection in the birdbath after toughing out the 60 mph winds and rain...
Just a little tattered now...
