Around 6:00 P.M. last night,
the wind began to blow,
the wind began to blow,
the rain fell in semi-opaque sheets, and
it began to hail pea-size hailstones.
We went downstairs.
Wow! About 15 minutes later, it had nearly quit.
Looking out from the basement window,
it appeared a large branch had fallen from one of our trees!

It stopped short of the flower bed in front of our house,
And it bordered this flowerbed, without entering it!
