Our son and daughter-in-law have a beautiful home in the hills with an incredible view. Their great room is on the second level with a deck outside. A year ago we had some high winds and their umbrella and table decided to fly, too. The deck has a fairly tall railing around it but the wind picked up the umbrella and table high above the railing and sent it crashing to the ground two stories below. Never to be put back together again! You just never know about these great umbrellas, do you? They seem to have a life of their own.<br />~Adrienne~Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401476871614514660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-65675332747382016472015-11-01T17:25:48.464-06:002015-11-01T17:25:48.464-06:00BJ,

I am sure this will not be the last time for that table to take flight unless you keep it weighted down or the umbrella closed all the time and what fun is that. <br />Funny, but not funny.

Once just the umbrella took flight and rolled down our front field...about 400 feet. Hubby was running after until there was a flash of lightening. (He ran track in high school)...so he did a quick sprint back to the house.<br />Lots of action around your place! ha. <br />Sheila ES H Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17903358927405180169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-3323761420953597522015-10-28T18:37:23.229-05:002015-10-28T18:37:23.229-05:00So glad that it didn't turn the umbrella insid...So glad that it didn't turn the umbrella inside out and it is useable..<br />Have a Happy Halloween..<br />MaryMary@mydogsmygardenandmaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03265174897498950754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-5849586579330109972015-10-28T16:51:55.251-05:002015-10-28T16:51:55.251-05:00Well I'm glad the guys saved the day!

The flamingos looks so cute in their hats and bows. We also had a lot of wind here and rain the last two days. I have had some small limbs down and the leaves came down in droves. When it dries out I will get the leaf blower out and get to work. Have a blessed day.
