Bob Jameson OP trapper B Joined: Dec 2006 SW Pa	Had a bad storm come through. We received a warning on our phones which in most cases nothing happens. Well this time it was real. I went outside and looked around from my front porch just in time, I saw the funnel it was close. I ran into the house and got my wife out of her wheel chair and dragged her down into the basement. She was not sure what was happening. I heard the noise and waited for the house to get hit but it didnt. I heard lots of noise and rattling then it passed in a few minutes. It touched down about 40 yards from our front porch with about a 100 yard or so swath wide in our lower yard just across our driveway. I looked out the window and all I could see was trees lying everywhere. 100 ft cherry trees blown down with the root balls up in the air 15 -18 ft/ What a mess. Spent most of the day cleaning up branches, sticks, bark and other debris. Thankfully it missed our shop and house. Called a buddy that does tree removal he stopped in to give me an estimate. He said I was very lucky. Others nearby weren't so fortunante. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com

I hate cutting big trees when the rootball is big and out the ground. Last edited by Boco; Yesterday at 09:27 PM. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
