Lightning struck us this afternoon, not us however it hit our house, we have a 40' TV tower that also supplies our computer power, of the TV's hit, 4 lost only power, the newest 50" is fried, luckily we had the tower guys here fast and restored our computer power, however looks like the antenna is fried , (NO TV), now to find a climber to replace a new antenna .

Wow. Glad no one was hurt. Sorry about the property loss though.

That sucks sir, sorry

We have no TV. It aint bad unless you have kiddos still at home. When our granddaughters come down they dont seem to miss it! Glad everyone is ok.

Kind of miss it at night, Kindle books on the big screen are the best.




Good night, all

What’s your number? I can read a book to you as you fall asleep.

Glad y'all are safe though sir. And thankful your house didn't burn down.

Sorry you are having to deal with this. It is no kind of fun. Very happy that you had no fire or injuries.

Just came back to grab some forgotten meds. ...


Mudshark, GO TO BED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a strike hit a very tall pine tree in our front yard several years ago. About 2:00 a.m. and it sounded like a bomb exploded. I came straight up out of a deep sleep. It did no damage to the house but the lightning transferred to a big mulberry tree because one limb was touching the pine. It then went down the trunk of the mulberry and went to ground destroying the valve for our sprinkler system ($700 repair job there.) The pine tree died slowly, and we had to have it taken down after about three years. Half of the mulberry died.
