Attacked by a tree
On my way to work this morning, I was attacked by a tree. It has been raining for several days and the wind has gusted to about 50 MPH at times. Ground gets soft when saturated and trees fall down. I was blasting up the road at about 50 when I rounded a turn and there in front of me......A tree across the road. I tried to brake and swerve but something hit the truck. Must have been a large branch. I stopped to check the truck and my pants. I noticed the windshield was broken. I drove on to work where I could check the truck in the light. The door is bent, the windshield gasket is torn out and the pillar around the glass is bent. What a day. Went back to see the tree. Someone had already cut it up and removed it. I wanted to set the tree on fire. The only thing I hurt was my pride. A 13 year old truck with low mileage. I hope the insurance company know how much that little truck means to me. Time will tell.
