Oh. My. God. Tree fall out. I have (had) a huge maple tree in the backyard that was big enough to shade my yard and the neighbors on either side. Friday morning about 1:45 it decided to split in 3rds, with a big crash and breaking glass (the neighbors house). It landed on Jeffs car (insurance adjuster said a couple days and they will be out to assess the damage...broken windshield, caved in hood, etc) and took out alot of the neighbors house (roof, siding, window, etc). The cops were there pretty quick, since a jogger who was going by nearly had a heart attack as he called 911. They then woke up the elderly neighbor who thought we were having a thunderstorm. She got light headed, helped to her chair and then they proceeded to call her 53 year old daughter to leave on the answering machine that a tree caved in her mothers house and she's ok. Needless to say daughter races over. What a mess. Neighbors have been helping clean up the mess with chainsaws and hauling limbs away to the city garages wood chipper. Now we need to remove the rest of the tree (which that 2/3rds still cover our house, garage and neighbors houses and garages on both sides. And there is power lines going through it. Yikes yikes yikes.
