While I thought I had a lot of damage from last week's storm (patio table blew up!), my parents had an even worse experience. That is a picture taken by a Dallas Morning News photographer of a tree sitting on their house. The tree is now gone - took a crew of 8 just over 7 hours to cut it down and grind it up on Saturday. My Mom expressed, "What else are we going to be faced with this year?" In the past few months she's been in a car wreck, dealt with both of her siblings health issues, and then there's my little fun experience.
Here is the article:
Joel and Sue Riley were home in Plano with their grandchildren Wednesday night when they heard a big crash. "We looked out the front door and couldn't see anything but tree limbs," Sue Riley said. "It looks like someone just took a front-end loader and shoved over our tree."The 30-year-old red oak landed on the two-story house on Edgewater Drive, which is east of Custer Road. Riley said water leaks into the upstairs bedroom, the siding is torn off and gutters are hanging down. But they won't be able to do much until they can get the tree removed and see how much damage their house sustained. "That was quite a wind," Riley said.
