Another tree falls in our yard

We had another wind storm today. Not anywhere near as bad as the one we experienced last December, but bad enough to knock down another one of the neighbor's 100-foot pine trees into our yard. In fact, this one fell down in exactly the same spot as the last one. Miraculously, the only thing hit by the tree was the same section of fence Grandpa replaced for us last spring. The fence sustained a little damage, but can be repaired easily.

The highlight for me was chopping it up into tiny bits with a chainsaw. We are going to have plenty of firewood this winter!

We have a massive pile of firewood at our house...all from trees we've lost during windstorms since we've lived there. One of the trees was one we cut down, but we've lost 3 trees and lots of HUGE branches in the past 6 and a half years.
