Santa Ana Storm

Pasadena declared a state of emergency last night with the Santa Ana winds racing up to 80 miles per hour.  Basically Brian and I didn't sleep as we laid in bed all night listening to the wind and police/fire sirens howling as trees cracked and fell on our house.  I kept thinking that our little house would be picked up by the wind and plopped down in the land of OZ!  

We have a big tree branch that fell on our roof, a down half-tree in the front yard that has pulled the power lines and siding off of our house but other than that we are ok.  Others didn't fair so well though and many are without power today.  The winds are supposed to continue today and pick up speed again tonight.  Maybe this time I will wear earplugs so I don't hear the strong gusts of wind that make my heart race and imagination go in overdrive.
