i'm sure the neighbors who lost this tree would disagree with my assessment, but as rob pointed out earlier, there are a lot of trees down that didn't hit homes or cars, so that's lucky for lots of folks. there was a decent-sized branch on my car from the 40-foot pine i like to call "the tree that is going to crush me to death someday" but miraculously the tree itself stayed erect. hee! the neighbor guy who lives in the attic said he was watching it out of his window and confirmed what ithought i saw from mine - the treetop was swinging a good 10-15 foot arc. he was just as certain as methat it was coming down today but it turns out the tree and all of we live to see another day. luckily, norwood has had power this whole time even though my own power was flickering due to the big tree which has branches in the path of the power line to my house. and they are cuttin up the tree in this
pic as i type. they're on the spot, prolly cos of school traffic - no cancellations in the Wood!
