We had a rapid pop up thunderstorm this afternoon. A very large tree at my house fell right where I normally park my truck. It also fell pretty near the camper... Really fortunate the way it fell with no damage to house, camper or truck!! .. Fathers Day will be spent with my chainsaw...

I know that tree didn't just die overnight. It should have been cut down years ago.

I'm glad that you didn't have any damage or injury from that tree. Now is the time to play the lottery while you're are having great luck.

I'm glad you guys are okay and no property damage. Huntsville has had more than its share of storm damage lately.

I'll bet you will that tree!
