We did, however, lose a pine tree along the edge of our woods. It hasn't been cleaned up yet because Mr. GV hasn't been able to wield a chainsaw until recently. (More on that to come.)

A Tree Falls in the South (my apologies to A Tree Grows in Brooklyn)
A few weeks ago we had a storm blow through. We actually got some rain, which was much needed, but there was also some wind damage in a few counties. We were the lucky ones once again, with no damage to our home and electricity the next day in the sweltering heat.
We did, however, lose a pine tree along the edge of our woods. It hasn't been cleaned up yet because Mr. GV hasn't been able to wield a chainsaw until recently. (More on that to come.)
I might collect some of the pine cones, make sure they are not buggy, and use them to decorate with this fall.

I put pine cones, opened and unopened in the oven with the light on. Unopened ones will open. Opened ones will dry. I have never had a bug problem, but I always worried about that. Get some of the amber if you can for a firestarter or fatwood. See my post on fatwood.
