Worked most of the day yesterday clearing my yard after my 40 foot weeping willow decided to commit tree suicide during a 2 AM storm. Bad things happen in threes though and we got them all out of the way within 25 minutes... 1:40 AM, Bonnie spills her glass of water on the nightstand and floor, 2:00 AM I get paged for a downed T-1 toll circuit, 2:05 AM the tree comes down. The branches were just long enough to touch the house with the very tips of it's leaves. Another foot of growth would have poked out my bedroom windows! WHEW!!!
Here's the tree trunk split...

After some clean up...

And after Rick came over to help me bring down the rest...
