Into life, a tree will fall

One of our tree's trunks collapsed this Friday morning. It's a mystery when this happened. The trunk was probably eight inches in diameter, and I can't believe it didn't make noise loud enough to hear when it sheared off the rest of the tree.

We're left with a somewhat smaller, tree, it looks like a little more than half remains. I can really tell how much of it is gone from the backyard sitting on the patio, but I'm still looking for a good pre-break photo. I believe I have some, I just never uploaded them to flickr.

Before

After

Terry came over with the trailer and helped haul the limbs and all off. It was sizable. Not just a tiny piece of the tree. It was a big piece.
