when 20,000 pounds of red pin oak falls on your house
2003-07-06 - 4:23 p.m.
Here is the last picture that BF took of the flooding back yard while
standing in the aviary. You can see the protective hardware cloth that
he added beneath the mosquito netting, so that when chewy parrots got out of
their flight cages, they wouldn't munch a hole in the screen.

He then walked back into the house and was walking through the living
room. I was standing behind the kitchen counter. There was a huge
slamming sound, and all the lights and various house noises like
the air-conditioner and refrigerator suddenly went dead. BF reported
that he felt as if he were being shoved forward toward the kitchen.
What he felt was one of the branches of the tree -- just the very tip --
pushing him as it fell through the ceiling. He is very lucky to be
alive and unhurt. These branches impaled the ceiling of a house. It
is too horrible to think of what they could have done to a human being
standing in the wrong place.

This is the tree where it smashed into the house. As you can
see, the tree is actually much larger than the house. We escaped
total annihilation because our house is some distance away from the
root of the tree; in fact, when I called people to tell them what had
happened, several people asked, "What oak tree?" because they knew
that there was no tree of this size actually on our property.
