12 foot circumference Oak tree fell in my yard yesterday..

Wiped out my pumpkin, cantaloupe, and squash...

Smashed...

Crushed one of the two A.C. units , hole in roof of house....

$7,000 to get it removed, if the weather holds, on Tuesday...

“Other than that Mrs. Lincoln?”

Tomatoes and Peppers are barnstorming!

If I was close, I’d come with a chainsaw. Cut it up and sell logs on the front lawn

No other bidders?

Man...that’s bad. That’s why I had the fir trees logged around my house and garden. BUT, I still left the two huge cedar trees that shade the living room. Hope they don’t lose their tops as others have.

So sorry, what a mess and expense you have had.

Oh, No! That is some bad luck! Trees are lovely, but spiteful when they fall!

We have an old Cottonwood in the back yard that is dying from the top down. It looks like hell and is shedding branches.

Beau really needs to get after that. That one WILL take out the back deck and ruin his NEW (8 years in the making!) metal roofing project! He’s already taken one tree out of that same area.

I want a Red Maple in there, eventually.
