Nice view! How much dock did you loose? All too familiar with falling trees, 20 acres of woods makes ya that way. Lucky no one was around.

Haha...Yeah I know...We have awesome sunrises here...The tree always framed the view nice.Now looking back at the old pictures and seeing how much it was leaning I shouldn't be surprised.

It was only 2 sections to start with so none I think. Glad I didn't have the boat done and sitting in the slip, that I've been restoring, that would have hurt a LOT! So honestly I'm glad it's down.

Are you on the river or is that a lake Mike? Either way it's a beautiful view

Nice photo to remember it. I know that would've hurt, glad the boat wasn't there.

Thanks...It's dammed up river, the St. Joseph. Starts in Michigan runs down to northern Indiana then loops north in South Bend Indiana and empties into Lake Michigan about 40 miles to the north.

I worked this morning then drove up to Michigan to borrow a chain saw from my brother for the tree project.

Shot a little video on the way.

Nice video Mike. Truck sounds impressive. If I drove like that around here especially through a field I'd get arrested. LOL
