so, this week has been hell! in alaska we get heavy winds..hurricane stage but no names...Tuesday night the winds started along with the rain. winds topped 131mph!!! took down atleast 6-7 trees around my house. we have been without power since 10pm on Tuesday night! running off generator power and using the cell phone as a hot spot for wireless internet.

the expedition really came through in this storm! i parked the excursion in the garage to keep it away from any damage and the explorer and expedition sat outside. but i spent most of the night pulling trees off the road with the expy...had her in 4 low spinning all 4 trying to get these trees moved. she did it!!! been a great work horse. hauling gas cans, chains..ect

the night, moving all the trees with the truck
