We had a massive old oak cut down a year or so back (it was diseased, had to go or it would have
fallen unexpectedly and uncontrollably). They knocked it into our lawn because there wasn't anywhere
else for it to go. It left a depression in the grass the entire length of the tree (I think it was
about 100 feet or taller, it was a HUGE tree), 3 feet across, and from 3"-16" deep. It was
impressive.

It looks fresh - the earth is still damp and crumbly. You sure you haven't offended anyone
lately, Mike?

Got some pretty nice burls there on the trunk...... I bet I could turn a few decent bowls on the
lathe out of that hunk of lumber!

I would if I could but I'm flying in/out on this trip. It's just a quickie, for a physical, blood
test, 4-6 hour written exam, etc. When come back and I drive down in August though......
