We were hit pretty hard here in Edgefield. We lost 52 trees in the yard and driveway alone. All of my beautiful white oaks (oldest one counted 170 growth rings) were lost. God is good though! None hit the house. My daughter and son-in-law were not that fortunate as they took six large pines through their house, but again God was watching over them. As the storm progressed they moved from the top level to lower levels. The first tree hit above my grandson’s room and made a 10’ wide hole directly above his crib. As they moved from the middle level to the lowest level four more pines came into the kitchen and living room where they had been. My son in law was carrying my oldest grandson down the steps to the lowest level when the trees hit and broke through the kitchen and living room where they had just left. I’ll be months cleaning up this mess. Folks from church and some of the guys on the fire department with me helped me get the driveway opened up enough to get out.
