The photo of the house with the blue tarp from yesterday doesn't really do justice to the size of the tree that landed on that house. Here we have GRider for scale.
Right on top of the house. There was an angle where we could see into the back yard. That tree was a multiple trunk tree about 10 feet from the house. The one trunk that fell separated from the rest at a juncture about 3 or 4 feet off the ground. Just to GRider's right is the lowest most portion of that massive piece of wood. Just to her left is piece number two.
Here's one I didn't notice yesterday. Anyone used to sitting in the shade next to the Agriculture/Horticulture Building should arrive a bit earlier as one of the big trees next to that building has gone away.
There will come a day in November when I will wish I could get just one more ride. Today was not ideal but it is a ride I am glad we were able to take.

Me, too. We saw things in our neighborhood we have never seen before and it was the perfect temperature. And, I get to go to Costco tomorrow.
Was there a bunch sprint at the finish?
Those big tree trunks can do a lot of damage to a house. It's risky having them in your yard, I suppose.
BDE -- While you're out at Costco could you pick me up one of those blue lawn chairs with the side table and cup holder attached? The taller ones. I think they're around $30.
Santini, I did not check your site until after the Costco visit, so no blue lawn chair has been purchased. Probably you were kidding anyway plus they always have different stuff available . . .
Do you have a Costco near you and a membership?
What about the cardinal flower search?
Miss you
