Timber!

Part of one of my favorite trees in our yard has fallen. We woke up Sunday morning and it was down. Another part of the tree had fallen about a month or so earlier. We knew that it was just a matter of time before more of it would fall. Before we had a chance to take it down ourselves, Mother Nature did it for us. It was actually the storm from Tropical Storm Erin...

And we actually were lucky, because it fell in the perfect spot where no damage was done to our house or garden. It fell right in between. A blessing, but Alex did have alot of work to do to clear the branches and save a couple of the watermelons right by the garden fence.

You never know when life might end...the rest of it will have to be cut down as well. I'm sad to see the tree go.
