Storms rolled through… Trees came down

Luckily, in this case it wasn’t onto a house.  Our neighbors lost a 125+ year old tree in the side yard.  It fell out into the street and covered the driveway.  It had been a magnificent tree.

WSB-tv came by and saw the tree and used it as a backdrop for their live remote during the 5:00 and 6:00 news.

Garrett and I lent a bit of a hand.  Several of the other neighbors were out there before we found out about the damage.  I also had to run and get a fresh chain for my chainsaw… burning through the branches was a bit too slow.

There were lots of tree down in Gwinnett County and even in Lilburn.  Another neighbor suffered damage to her house when a tree came down on top of it.  There were several homes damaged by trees falling in the wind.

Keep in mind that tornados aren’t the only thing that takes down trees and does damage.  Straight line winds can also be quite dangerous.
