This explains why I thought my house was hit. Mr. Gilbert is my backyard neighbor. The noise was so loud. I heard glass shattering and ran through the house trying to find what had broken. I thought it was a window but luckily it just knocked a plate off the wall. It definitely got my attention. It also knocked out a new tv.

Thankfully Mr. Gilbert had the wrench and knew just what to do.
What an evening he had!
Glad he's ok.
