Now that there's some daylight, I walked around the neighborhood taking some better pictures. All of these are within three blocks of our house.

[Edit 9:15 AM: added a few more that didn't come out the first time I took them.]

from our front door
also from our front door
also also from our front door
the sidewalk in front of our house
the base of the tree that is now in our front yard
the same, closer up
another tree across the street that only lost a limb
the house three doors down
the cross street, taken from about thirty feet from our front door
the same, seen from the other direction
an intersection two blocks away
the same, from the other side
a garage two blocks from our house
a house two blocks away
the base of the same tree, which took a couple of limbs off another large tree
where those limbs landed
ditto (there's a motorcycle and a car in there)
a near miss
two blocks away in a different direction
the same, including the house we almost bought in 2001

Note that our neighborhood has a lot of big trees, and there seems no rhyme or reason to which ones came down and which still look perfectly fine.

Actually, there are only three "Archie Bunkers" on our street (there was an oddly-shaped trapezoidal lot that apparently lay fallow until the 1910s, when somebody subdivided it and put three one-room-wide "Colonial" houses--the aforementioned Archie Bunkers--on it); the rest are a mixture of Queen Anne [Victorian], Tudor, and [large] Colonial.
