    Default Crazy awakening!!

    I had an interesting day today....At 4 am I get woken up by my dad all wired up saying how all these trees were falling down around the cars and one of them hit a car.......I IMMEDIATELY JUMPED OUT OF BED....we went outside to move the cars out on the road (away from the trees) and when I walked outside I see a tree on top of Christine's car :sad021: We cleared the branches off her car and moved all the cars to the road...while we were doing this I could hear about 6 trees crashing in the woods and behind houses..This isnt the first time this particular tree has fallen....one time before it fell and hit both my dad's and my car...doing minor damage to both of them.....

    As for Christine's car (for the most part is fine) it has about 10 or so scratches about 8-15 inches long and one NICE dent above the drivers door....so now we need to get some PDR for it

    So after I get home and relax for a little while I decide to go and clear some of the tree out...and whats that mean? PICS

    Bradford pear trees are an engineered tree.. they were created by man and not thouroughly tested.. as it turns out they grow to a decent size then split apart, usually breaking something in the process lol.

    sorry about the damage...

    here are some shots of Christine's car...you cant make out the scratches too well but you defiantly can see some of the dents...upon further evaluation in the daylight there are more dents :-/



    THESE TWO ARE DIFFERENT DENTS....

    That's kinda scary.... Travis with a chain saw. lol. Just kidding man. Sorry to see that shit happening to you house and her car. That poor 7th gen.

    If it makes you feel any better; last year, right before Nopi, that big ass hurricane dropped so much rain at our 1 week old house, a tree dropped on it, and ripped a bunch of our roof off, then continued to roll off the house and landed directly on my mom's new car. (I was wishing it were mine. lol).
