“What the herd hates most is the one who thinks differently; it is not so much the opinion itself, but the audacity of wanting to think for themselves, something that they do not know how to do.”
-Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

or the tree fell, and the owner of the car saw a cool photo op.
Don't discount mother nature. We got hit by a Tornado and had a large 80ft oak come down.

Looking at it, it looked like it wiped out a corner of the house and set my neighbors into a massive panic.

On close inspection though, the branches laid down on each side of the corner.

It didn't bother the gutters, it didn't dent the aluminum siding or damage the house at all.

This is what I found this morning:

No damage to anything, fortunately. The driveway was cleared in a couple of hours. I will take the last two pieces of the trunk out with the tractor tomorrow since the rain and lightning did not let me finish today.
