Today at Iten's Acres: Timber!!! May 11, 2014

Interesting surprise when I arrived home at The Acres. A huge tree collapsed right next to the cave. Fortunately it was impeded by the lovely white pine right next to house, and ricocheted a little to the left. As it is, parts of the top of the tree are right up against the house. I assume that without the protection of the pine, I would have a tree in my house. It either happened just before I got home or the poor Homesteader has been in panic mode all day. When I came inside, her tail was in puffed up I'm paranoid mode. She has since relaxed. I guess she figures the old man is already too far out on a limb to be frightened by tree attacks. Guess I shall have to go shopping for a tree removal company. Alas. The joys of owning a cave. To be honest, I would just leave it there if it wasn't messing with my lovely pine.
