Well as I cut my grass a couple of days ago (for the first time this year). I discoverd that in the back corner of my lot I have a Weeping Willow which I new was going south. Well upon further looking at it, I discoverd a 4" crack right at the base. Panic Now! This thing is leaning (of Course) not in my yard, but my Neighbors yard, just about exactly right overtop of his daughter playhouse and Jungle gym. So I start planning (tonight) to get a few guys together to help take it down in a couple of days, when I look outside and look up at the storm clouds brewing and the wind picking up. I got up and went out to investigate the tree, and now the gap has grown to 6" and it is creaking and groaning. Panic really sets in now. What to do?

1)Call the neighbor
2)Get the beer
3)Get the saw
4 Get the JEEP :) OOH YA!
5)Find the rope
6) Hook it all up
7) Lock it all up. The Jeep that is!
8)Start pulling.

10 seconds later, without much effort at all, and here is the result.

Oh! That is MY daughters swing set under it. Guess what I'm doing this weekend :)

NCOAS does do it every year, I am thinking about heading down for the weekend, working the bugs out of my SAS.

Are you going to head in?

I have spent alot of time in there but haven't been since I moved back up to the Peace.
