The wind and rain kept waking us up last night, but it was the very loud BANG! that got us out of bed this morning. I looked out the window to where the sound came from and our new trampoline was GONE!
This is our backyard and where it is supposed to be.
Howard and I frantically got dressed and our neighbor called. "Um...your trampoline just hit my house and flew into the next yard over."
"Thanks, we just noticed!"
Howard and I ran 2 houses down to check out the damage. That house has not sold yet, so luckily it didn't damage any personal property (but we're going to have to pay for a few new rain gutters that got damaged).
Here's how it landed.
Sorry it's so blurry, but to top it off we're having freezing rain and very high winds (obviously high winds since that's what sent it 2 houses down). What a great start to our Christmas Eve day.
Howard and our kind neighbor just finished taking it apart and brought it back to our yard in pieces. It's salvageable, but Howard said he will have to order a few replacement parts.

That has happened to us before in Missouri. It was late at night while Curtis was at work and I was 7 months pregnant with Megan. I had to wrestle down the net in high winds so it didn't fly further away!!!
