    Default Hail storm this morning

    We woke up to a hail storm this morning. Golf ball and larger size hail. Our car took a beating, and has about 15 sizable dents in it. I just called the insurance agent. Of course we have a $250 deductable, so we will be out some cash to get the damage repaired.

    Sorry Deb, just what you don't need. Hate those can't-do-anything-about-it things.

    Another bad thing is how we will manage while our (only) car is in the body shop being repaired.

    Living in the Pacific Northwest, we don't get the kind of hail that some of you do. Once on a trip to South Dakota, there was a car that had been battered by hail in the parking lot at Crazy Horse. That was really unbelieveable to my family....we had never seen that kind of thing. We were exposed to Mt St Helens blowing up though...that was crazy too.

    Wow, that's crazy! Hopefully there was no damage to the house. Have you checked over the roof, windows and yard too, just to be safe? Good luck!
