On our walk back from Dairy Queen (hey, RAGBRAI is only 4 days away, we're in the final training stretch -- no biking, all eating), I took this picture of some neatly piled up tree limbs from the neighborhood. A similar scene exists all around town as a result of the 70 MPH winds from the weekend storm. The city is working their way around town to pick up the branches, and actually had to put out a warning that scammers are out and about trying to charge for debris removal, when the city is doing it for free.
Storms like this have us re-thinking the let's-plant-a-shade-tree-near-the-house-and-deck idea...
