At about 0138 this morning, during the snow fall, a tree rooted up and fell on the chicken coop and house.

All the girls are okay.... No serous damage seems to have been done at first glance....

Hope all my friends on the west coast are getting ready for the tsunami that just hit Japan, and the other side is coming.. It just hit the Hawaiian Island and I pray for them.....

ETA add second photo from cell phone I sent to facebook
