[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 65872, member: 1697"] Good late morning. we are at the library, my son is taking a library sponsored chemistry class this week here. I understand the sadness etc re trees. Altho we live IN town with a small lot (less than one fifth acre) we at one time had several trees. 3 very large maples, a cherry a plum and an apple tree, a mulberry, a walnut, a japanese lilac and 2 regular lilacs. We heavily depended on these trees for climate control help- a windbreak in winter and much needed summer shade. Whoever did our yard planned it very nicely and all our windows framed trees in a lovely manner. Sadly 3 years in a row we had thunderstorms- in JANUARY! and each of those 3 years we lost a fruit tree. - to lightening. One of the huge maples in our backyard looked precarious, and was very close to our neighbors house and cars, so we finally had to make the decision to down it before it fell on their house. I musta cried for weeks over it and still 2 years later cry becuz I deeply miss it. I am so sorry you lost your tree. Janna, I am so sad for you and for DYlan. Hugs. SOmething very weird happenbed here last nite to my poor easy child and to our Jeep- AGAIN. I am gonna go post on watercooler. Have a good day everyone. I heard there is some different sounding name for a weather system hanging over MN area- a "derecho" Stay dry and safe! UG, it is t-storming here as I type. I have not yet cleaned up entirely from the storm we had day before yesterday. I do not think the rest of the neighborhood has yet finished cleaning up after flooding from last week, either, it was REALLY bad, and unusual, we do not ever get flooding. But I guess the storms took out our water works power and the lack of them having power caused all the sewer system in town to fail. [/QUOTE]
