And this tree we found out on the second day of clean up (we are still cleaning it up) did hit our light pole! We thought it missed it but the box on the pole did get hit and bent pretty good. We ended up calling the electrcal folks out to assess if it needed to be replaced. They said nope we got lucky though. No wires busted and the box bent in a way that it didn't affect and will not affect anything.
Man that was sure a blessed miss from that downed tree!! we have 3 large old oaks in our back yard that are way too close to our house, and so far so good, they seem to have been holding up, and hope they continue too, our bedroom is right where it will hit if it happens!!
Yay we got real lucky. There is a stand of trees that sits between the house and big barn. We have been worried about the two that are hallowed out from the years and it was the one we weren't worried about that keeled over! Those trees are older then my folks whom are in their early 60s. We think they might even be older then my granny who is in her middle 90s.
