A man lost his life close to us when the tree limb he was sawing fell and pinned him unexpectedly.

We had a gorgeous maple directly behind the house - four trunked. We had taken down one trunk based on how it was leaning. We then had the whole tree taken down when one large part of the tree landed on our roof. Fortunately no damage was done. It was a great old tree.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960209583595716053.post-65426762291281005962011-08-01T21:12:57.986-05:002011-08-01T21:12:57.986-05:00Yikes!
