That's what Geico calls the golf ball size hail that hit our house the other day! The kids had just gone to bed when we sat down to eat dinner with Granny and Opa. All of a sudden, the sky got dark and golf balls started bouncing off of the ground, the roof, the kitchen windows, and (as we found out shortly after it stopped) our cars. We picked up a few of the hail pieces that were on the patio.
The BIG ones that were close to baseball size were still out in our yard where we dare not run! After the storm passed we went outside to assess the damage. My dad's truck (on which he had made NO payments) got the worst of the damage. No estimate back on it yet. My little Xterra had a little over $2100 worth if damage. Not quite totaled! The truck had $1500 worth. And our camper had a few holes knocked in the roof and some lights and speakers busted out, but we haven't gotten an estimated on it either! So...that was a rather expensive "Act of Nature." It did, however, make for a thrilling 15 minutes during the storm!
