The Tree



Over this past weekend, we had an ice storm that was pretty nasty. The big excitement was the fall of our Bradford pear tree. This tree is enormous and takes up a lot of space in our front yard. Steve and I have contemplated taking the tree down but always felt guilty because it is not exactly the most "green" to do. Not to mention the fact that the tree is beautiful, just huge. The tree succumbed to the ice early Saturday afternoon. One part of hit fell between our house and the neighbor's house and the other limb fell into the street. We are so lucky it did not hit the house! The picture above shows what the storm did to the tree.
