Amazingly enough, I was spared almost 100% of any damage. Got about 2" of rain out of the storm, but a mile in any direction from my house.. not so lucky. Here's a picture montage of me driving into work & the damage & hail from this wild-assed storm. It was not a good storm.. beautiful with the lightning (looked like a strobe light), but wow. I'm lucky.. very very lucky. Some people in Aurora were definitely not lucky.

A couple of roses in the front yard (RedGold, Sterling Silver, and the minibed)

My drive in. The white is hail buildup. There's a line of crabapples on my way into work and you can see how badly they got beat. :(
