The Oak Tree!













Looking out the front door.


A pot hole in the pavement from the tree falling.

A whole lot of branches in the street.


A side view


Julie's climbing the tree.


Mom and Julie

This is a view of the bottom of the tree, where the roots are!


Mom's life was suddenly uprooted this morning when our oak tree fell down from the storm!


Moving in for a closer look.

Jill, Carol, and Louise surveying the situation.


Time to do something about those roots. (I'm talking about the tree)

Anybody want to swing with me?



Julie, checking out the fallen tree.


Mom, showing off the damage in our front yard.


This is the damage from the storm in our back yard.
;)


Grandma stopped by to see.


The view from our front door.


A slight fracture.


Check out those roots!

Where the tree used to be.

The mail man was a little thrown off as he delivered the mail.


Walking across the street is not so easy anymore.

A lot of branches.

Close up of the ants on the wood.

A view from across the street.

New neighborhood playground. Allie and Maddie!

The roots.

There's our bird house!

Allie finally gets to climb the oak tree!

Lots of neighbors went for a walk today.


Puddle of water under the roots.


Another view form the Carnes house.

This is what Jill, Allie, and Julie drove up to this morning.
