YOU NEVER KNOW


LOOK WHAT JUST HAPPENED!!  OUR 50 YR OLD APPLE TREE JUST CAME DOWN.   BIG HUGE CRACK!!!!

  WE WERE JUST REMARKING THAT IT HAD THE BIGGEST CROP OF APPLES WE'VE SEEN THIS YEAR.....


I THINK IT'S TIME HAD COME.....WE HAVE A CALL INTO A TREE SERVICE BUT IT'S PRETTY LATE IN THE DAY AND RAINING 
SO MAYBE TOMORROW.....

I'M JUST HAPPY IT DIDN'T LAND ON A CAR OR PERSON....

 HATE TO LOSE SUCH AN OLD BEAUTY--IT WAS JUST LOADED WITH BLOSSOMS IN THE SPRING.... 
I THINK TONIGHT THE DEER WILL HAVE A HUGE FEAST--OUR DRIVE IS FULL OF APPLES....
IT WILL REMAIN A DELIGHTFUL MEMORY.....

    :( so sad to loose a heavy producing apple tree! glad it didn't hurt anyone - I assume the apples are no where near ripe so you can't save them?

    Sorry about your tree. Too mush fruit will do that. The deer will love it.

    Oh golly, lucky it didn't cause any serious damage... what a shame to lose a big old tree like that. I'm guessing it's too early in the season to salvage the apples? Oh well, lucky dear!

    Oh what a shame about your apple tree - they're just beautiful when full of blossom in spring.

    Awe I am sorry about your tree. Did you have the high winds and torrential rains? We had it yesterday late afternoon, you could not even see 10 feet from you it was raining so hard.

    What a shame! Seems it had too much fruit for its own good.
