    My next door neighbor's pine tree blew over during the night falling on their front porch and part of our front roof and its a miracle there wasn't any serious damage (so far).

    The guy with the chainsaw (no, not "leatherface!") told me that so many pine trees fell during the high winds because they're the only trees with "leaves" that catch the winds, like a sail.


    Took lots of pics for insurance purposes and because it just looks so cool.

    Remember when one of my older brothers planted that 35+ FT tall pine tree 30 some years ago.
    Coincidence is the word we use when we can't see the levers and pulleys.

    I'd be glad to,
    but by the time I get them developed, scanned and sent to you, the interest in it may have died down (going to install a new HP computer and the pics were taken with a disposable camera)

    Please let me know if you still want some pics within a week tops
