Well the garden did, the house did, the kids thought it was "kewl" but

I know we were lucky and the teenaged son was beaned by a pea sized
piece....
The garden pretty much OK. The lettuce and basil look pretty sad
(the lettuce leave because they are large and soft, the basil because
it's so temperature sensative).
I noticed the hostas in one of the huge planters downtown seem
to really have caught the brunt of the hail (very exposed) and look
like they've been clawed by cats (daughter's description).
You must see hail more than I do - this was the first time for both of my
kids and I can only remember one time with anything bigger than the pea
sized pellets that fell a few days ago.
