December debris on the drive

Wow yesterday was wild! I felt like a little girl being blown up the road on my way home from school, and it got wilder and wilder as the evening passed. This morning I noticed that part of an old dead tree had crashed down on the drive next to our house..................and further along there was lots of debris from another one which had crashed into a tall tree on our side of the drive bringing lots of stuff down! Could have been a lot worse but lots of tidying up to be done!
you certainly had it rough up there.!
thats a load of firewood there.

Well someone may get the benefit of it but we just have a gas fire and gas central heating so not much to be gained here!

Glad to hear you're safe and well. I presume your school stayed open? It makes a good collage.

Could have been a lot worse. The second tree fell against one on our side of the drive and if it had fallen on our house......................:( http://365project.org/lornareid/365/2011-12-09

I truly understand how those windstorms go- we've had our fair share of limbs and branches coming down in the backyard. Thankfully we've never had anything come through the roof. I'm glad to see that everything that fell in your neighborhood landed in a "good spot". If you want to clean the trees up without lifting a finger- put a "free wood" sign on it and let the wood burners do the rest! (o:

Well....Andy at the manse and another Andy from the church (with a chain saw) worked on it for a couple of hours and I think the drive is clear. Not sure who will use the firewood!

How sad to see these old trees down - lots fell down our way too.
