Here are the pictures I took of the two trees that fell in the storm last Sunday. Turns out we had Tornado Warnings in the area. That doesn't happen a lot around here. We lost power till later that night, why I made a Post from My Phone, my first ever. So there's a bit more detail there and in Monday's Good Morning Post.
Without further ado... Here are My Trees...
and a peak at what it looks like in my parts :-)
It was still very windy when I took this pic, notice the smaller trees swaying in the back. By the way, the hillside in the background is American soil. At the base of it is the river that separates us. Yes we are that close :-) It shows up better in some of the other pics. Notice how dirty the river is too, because of the flash floods we got that day... washing out whole driveways and destroying freshly planted farmer's fields.
This is the first one to fall, the second is right behind it. The tops laid on either side of the ditch blocking off the driveway. You can see the power lines above, where the first tree hit. At the end of the post I have a couple pictures of the trees that I took a few years ago. It gives you a much better idea of the live power cables, that are higher then the ones you see here. And of course, what the trees looked like before last Sunday.
