These pictures just...I don't know...sicken me in a way. I live in a very old neighborhood with virgin oaks and my across the street neighbor had a 60-foot plus oak come down in her back yard. Thankfully all it took down was fence, but now there's a dispute with another neighbor about who is paying for what. <br /Washington Cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892459114050731786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735719884954321988.post-45178788096044244812012-07-05T08:01:33.997-04:002012-07-05T08:01:33.997-04:00How terrifyIng!

As I've learned with the tornadoes from the past two years (my home was hit two years ago, and several friends were last year), stuff can be fixed or replaced but our loved ones are irreplaceable.
