BIG ASH TREE!!!


Ok, well I don't know what kind of a tree it is-- but its big!!

Me and Chet got home from Rexburg last night (getting the car seat for the kid eek!!) When we pulled into the driveway we had quite the surprise (not in a good way)-- no the cows weren't out-- that would have been soo much worse! But this was bad enough!

The wind had been out of control that evening and obviously our big old trees -- just couldn't take it!!

Luckily -- it didn't crash the fence down -- it was hanging out over the fence enough to just drop down-- but it did do some damage-- how much -- I don't know yet!! Chet was getting the chainsaw out as I left for work -- try to see what he can find in the midst of it.

We're hoping that the poor old camper didn't get smashed-but its hard to tell until the debris is moved!


You can't even see the camper for all the tree that came down. Luckily no dogs were in the flight kennel--it was sitting on top of the little 4 wheeler trailer-- still not sure if the trailer made it??? It could be touch and go?


Wow-- lucky that the 4 wheeler wasn't parked there, and no cars were parked there-- oh I would have been super sad!! But we'll see what all was under there!
Big trees are wonderful for shade-- but ooh so damaging when they decide to come crashing Down!!

You know the song:
Rock a bye Baby
In the Tree Top
When the wind blows
The Cradle will Rock
When the bow breaks
The craddle will FAll
And down will come baby
Cradle and All

Ok, I'm a little fuzzy as to whether that song is a nice nursery rhyme or not? Any way -- Fun fun fun!!
