I have a large willow tree that bit the dust. Sad. Just sad. Weeping doesn't begin to tell his tale

....on rare occasion you can get a small break on your home insurance policy for removing willow trees located close to your house. Any chance it was within 15 or 20 feet of your foundation?

Yep. About 15 feet-ish

Well....wouldn't hurt to call your insurance agent. They generally don't like seeing willow trees close to foundations because they're so water-loving that their roots can actually remove enough moisture from the ground around them in the summer that they cause the dirt to dry out and shrink...and if that shrinking happens close enough to a foundation, the foundations can crack when the dirt withdraws.

That too bad. In Ireland willows are called Salleys (saileach) and hold special place in lore so they are always special trees to me.

I have 3 more. Love them. They did fine, but this one just couldn't stand the strain. I'll try to post a pic.

Nixle update. Alexandria is still on level 2!!!

Here it is, sideways, but here.willow.jpg

Mother Nature is like every other woman I know, it's never enough.

A freezing mist falling again in Louisville.

At last! The danger has been lifted to a level one!!

So that means we can all hit the streets with caution.

Does anyone really not drive just because it is a level two?

Same here in Winchester. My sidewalk is covered in ice.

The roads in NKY were in pretty solid shape this morning. Doesn't appear as if we've had anything in terms of precipitation all day either.
