Holy fuck. A trampoline just landed in our backyard. Like one of these. It just flew in and landed perfectly as if it had always been there. o.O

It's from our neighbour's backyard. The wind must have been wicked to have it fly over their fence and their trees though. fuck. Thank god the kids weren't outside. We tried to move it but the thing is damn heavy.

O.O Meep! The wind was able to carry it even though you can't lift it?!

Glad to hear no one got hurt...

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

It's insanely windy right now and yeah... the trampoline has this kite like quality. apparently. :(

thanks, dear.

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

!!!!! Holy fuck indeed!

Maybe a gentle word with them about the wisdom of pegging down structures prone to kite-like behaviour? And yes, hurrah for no one or thing being damaged!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

yes. indeed. They are not home but once they are...

unfortunately, I now have two kids who are THRILLED we suddenly have a trampoline. um, we aren't keeping it guys! wtf!

[scabbyfish.livejournal.com]

oO Scary stuffs, I'm glad no one was hurt!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

thanks, sweetie. It was pretty crazy. I'm glad it didn't land on my roof! But it would be insane to be out in the backyard in this weather anyway, so little chance of it hitting anyone back there.

[vaysh11.livejournal.com]

I am still giggling. ;) But thank Merlin that nobody was hurt. That could have been bad. This trampoline is huge!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

I know!!! It was like... typing away email and HOLY FUCK!!! back to typing away email... (then power goes our for an hour) and then back to emails...

It is HUGE! I took a pic, but it basically looks exactly like the one above. HUGE. and HEAVY!!!

[gmth.livejournal.com]

Ohmygoodness. So glad no one was hurt!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Thank you. yes, it was pretty crazy. Luckily my biggest problem now is explain to the kids that we are not keeping the bloody trampoline!

[kayoko.livejournal.com]

Oh no! The winds have been rather wicked lately along with the rain. Glad no one was hurt! Although the aerodynamics of a trampoline would be rather interesting to study.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

oh, right! you're not far from here. :DDD YES. WINDY!!! and cold. jeepers it's cold. power's been on and off, too.

Although the aerodynamics of a trampoline would be rather interesting to study.
I completely agree! though something I never thought about until an hour and half ago. LOL.

[faynia.livejournal.com]

Hoooooly shit. Wind scares me. A lot more than rain and thunderstorms combined. D:

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Wind is pretty damn scary. We don't get THAT much of it here, compared to a lot of places. But fjjds!!! it's insane when it just does stuff like this. o.O

[musyc]

Holy hell. Glad everyone's safe!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Thanks! yes. It was rather... shocking. I wonder how they are going to get it back in their yard?

[leashy-bebes.livejournal.com]

Holy crap! I'm glad you guys are all okay. That's some seriously strong wind.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Very seriously strong wind.
Thanks, darling.
*stays inside until it's all over*

[chantefable.livejournal.com]

OMG! Thank god you weren't outside. *shakes head* There are ways to fix stuff like that to the ground. Or dismantle it in case of windy weather. *frowns at careless neighbours*

This is quite frightening. Have your children jump on the trespassing trampoline to lighten the mood. *g*

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Oh, the mood was pretty 'light'. They were running in circles laughing and signing "we have a trampoline, we have a trampoline"

LOL.

But yeah, it had better be secured in the future!!! o.O

[rickey-a.livejournal.com]

LOL awesome!
I wish one would land in my yard. ;P

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

ha! when they came to see us about it, we almost said: we just bought it in a garage sale. :D

[faithwood.livejournal.com]

That's scary! So glad no one got hurt!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

It was fucking WILD. but yeah - we were lucky that we weren't outside. of course we weren;t outside because it was so bloody windy the kids would have been blown away. o.O

*hugs you tight*

[treacle-tartlet.livejournal.com]

*points to icon*

We never get anything but trees blowing into our yard! :(

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

LOL, well this was certainly a rarity. we get ppls downspouts all the time though. safer than tress. or trampolines. :D

[jamie2109.livejournal.com]

Wow. I've put together one of those things and they're not small, that's for sure. Glad no one was hurt from it.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

It took them 6 of them almost an hour to disassemble it enough to get it back over the fence. yeah - not small. :(

Still, makes a great story! *tackles you*

[lolafalola.livejournal.com]

That's sounds amazingly scary and completely hilarious... Sorry, I have a twisted sense of humor.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

It was pretty damn funny. we were laughing our asses off, until we thought - shit that was kinda scary. :D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

OMG! So glad no one was hurt. It does get pretty windy around here, doesn't it? The closest I've seen was my neighbour's brand new gazebo coming out of the ground and partially toppling over our fence (nothing as cool as landing intact, though).

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

yikes! for new gazebo. :( That would have been a pisser. and shitty for your fense.

But yeah - it was just... perfectly ready to be used, like it had alwasy been there. LOL.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

God, I'm glad no one was hurt.

*hugs*

Does this mean that now that it's in your backyard that it's yours now? I wanna come over and bounce with you and the kids ♥

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

Ha! The boys wanted to keep it, so bad!!! luckily it's freezing so it was less tempting to go out a use it when it was covered in SNOW!!!

It's gone now, though. and I have two pouting kids.

[dysonrules.livejournal.com]

I think it's time to move out of Kansas, Dorothy...

LOL!

O___O

[dysonrules.livejournal.com]

PS (Finders keepers?)

LOL!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

it was mentioned once or twice, lol.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

srsly.

[enchanted-jae.livejournal.com]

Trampolines from heaven!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

bwahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[fcmwt-r-do.livejournal.com]

ok, so I'm going to have to take a picture, but there is a house in the neighborhood that I just moved into that LITERALLY has a trampoline on their roof, and I laughed so hard when I saw it...

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

holy shit. thank god it didn't hit our roof. o.O

[vicious-seagull.livejournal.com]

Hahahahaha...you just made my day. That happened to a friend of mine-their trampoline disappeared one day. They were quite perplexed until they eventually found it on the roof. I think they're still a bit perplexed, actually. Glad nobody was hurt.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

omg! that's insane!

and thanks!

[melusinahp.livejournal.com]

lolol. It's yours now, you know. That's the law of wild trampolines.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

hahaha! We were tempted to tell them that we'd bought it in a garage sale. :P

[snegurochka_lee]

Whaaaaaat. That is insane. *shields your kiddies from wild trampolines* o_O.

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

I know, right? Just... CRAZY!

*squish*

ps: *pokes you*
