Easy Come, Easy Go!!!



While the winds are still howling I heard a loud crackling noise at my home in Ocean City and then a big thump. I went outside only to see a huge mature pine tree had fallen. As I walked around to see where it had fallen I saw it had completely destroyed my Tacoma. I'm hearing about all kinds of trees being down just about everywhere. Oh well, no one was hurt thank God.

Sorry to hear that Joe. I'm hearing the same thing here in Da 'Bury too!! Don't want my new truck hit.

Those trees have very shallow root systems.
Sorry.

We are in Bishopville and I've been here through several hurricanes. Never have we had so many trees down and so many large branches everywhere. Hardly any much needed rain though.

To have all of the pines you do on your property, it's a lucky thing you didn't lose more.

Climate change. And more proof that we need more pine tree testing

We have so much to be thankful for here on the shore compared to so many places. Sorry for the damages everyone incurred but could have been soooo much worse.
