This is what I found this morning: View attachment 137246
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.

30 or so years ago, on a quiet Sunday afternoon. The little ones and my wife were napping. I was in my chair, reading. Nothing going on. Pleasant weather, sunny, nothing but a light breeze. Then I heard a snap, then a loud cracking, then a louder crash. Went to look out on the backyard, and there was 60 feet of alianthus laid neatly across the back yard. There was a row of them down one side of the yard and one of them had just gotten tired and laid down, almost perfectly at right angles to the fence. The top leaves were brushing the fence on the other side of the yard.

Nothing damaged, nobody hurt.

I hate ailanthus.

That's too much effort, lol.

Here in South, TX the buzzards, hogs and coyotes will devour everything if left in the open. I have had 350lb boars completely disappear within 4 days. Not a skull, leg bone or hide left, everything gone.
Possum got hit in front of my house. Noticed it at 5am when I walked the pooch.

I found it that night in my yard. It was down to the skeleton and fur in 12 hours.
