We have a bunch of clear cut lots here, one right around the corner and the abutters have a thin line of now weakened, TALL trees looming over their lot. I am glad you are all cozy...and resourceful.

I doubt it would grow this high, but OR is pretty on the ball about non native species. Heck they make out of state trail riders bring certified weed free hay into OR.if they want to ride any of the BLM/state land<br /><br />Martha, YES! Thankfully, our power lines are not near our house so out local trees are all safe from them. ;)I have to beat them off with a stick to sit in that chair!<br /><br />Cindie, what I don't understand is why they don't start burying these lines. It has got to be cheaper in the long run to have crews either up fixing lines or the endless Trees Inc contract.<br /><br />Mary, me too, but a broken stove seems a great excuse not to cook a lot. ;)Hugs to Bandit AND Nick Little.<br /><br />Judy, Gene is on the war path about the road. It will all work out, it always does. <br /><br />R.L. Amazing isn't it? And frustrating as hell too! We've been hit pretty hard. There was a small respite yesterday, some brief blue skies and no wind. But overnight the gully washers have started again. I'm hoping to see some awesome wave studies from you! :)Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574936988046982209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850972750087291265.post-52726227696354558052012-11-30T18:48:10.117-08:002012-11-30T18:48:10.117-08:00You know, I never understood why people who go and...You know, I never understood why people who go and cut down trees in such a manner don't understand what is clearly plain to you and me. I tried to explain that concept to neighbors once, They clear cut their trees anyway then lost the ones they kept to the first big storm.<br />I saw on the forecast that southern Oregon has been hit pretty good with this storm. Glad no one was hurt. I know you are well prepared for such things although very annoying when caused by human. R.

The thing I hate most about power outages is no water from the well. <br /><br />Your poor horses, donkeys, and oven!!<br /><br />Let me guess, the area they clear cut runs parallel to the direction of prevailing winds...just to make your very own wind tunnel?<br /><br />Hope the rest of the winter is less violent.<br />Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226371437929271405noreply@blogger.com
