    after Gini's last post I don't even know what to say -
    posting my pics seems inappropriate.

    Staci, of course, post your pictures.

    The damage? I don't know yet. I really am still shaking although I called the tree surgeon and my insurance company.

    But I don't think I want to go into the back door quite yet. The main branch is just hanging there and could give way at any time.

    It breaks my heart, because I dearly love this tree.

    But we had fun and should concentrate on that fun - and my intense gratitude that this didn't happen last Saturday - or anytime while all of you were here.

    I'm so sorry about your tree, Gini. I do hope that your house didn't suffer any damage, though. I know you have had more than your share, lately.

    At this point it's just property damage and, regrettably, damage to a great old tree. No one got hurt and we didn't even know there was that possibility during the BBQ so no harm was done.

    I agree with Randy.....I am a certified tree hugger and you have a wonderful, wonderful tree....

    but...to play the Glad Game.....

    Let's be glad it didn't fall on anyone and let's hope you still have lots of great shade in your fabulous backyard and the limb that fell will be wood for the fireplace this winter and.....

    why is it I don't agree with RICHARD???? Why is it never RICHARD never agrees with me?????

    Oh my goodness, Gini!!! Wow, they say timing is everything and this just proves that point once again! The only thing I can think of is if it happened when everyone was there, just think of the help you would have had cleaning it up. I only say that because, of course, there is no way anyone could get hurt while at a California BBQ. It's just not allowed. Pants can get wine spilled on them, but no bodily injury is allowed to happen.

    However, this is bad timing when thinking about the insurance. I'm sure your insurance company took a hit last year with your flood, and after this they may not like you very much. Funny, you pay them for years and years without a single minor claim..... Here's hoping the damage is minor and the main branch decides to hang on until the tree guys get there and cut it down safely.

    Richard is turning into Joe Btfsplk, the hard-luck charater from the Li'l Abner comic strip.
