We heard the crackle of limbs breaking. We were eating dinner, and when we looked toward the window we saw a big oak slowly lean down the hill and then came the crash. It took two other trees down with it like dominoes. Before you know it two of our neighbors were looking at the mess in the middle of the road. We scurried down the hill and picked up enough debris to let the mailman through. Someone had already called the firefighters, and they hopped out of the truck with chainsaws, cleared the road, and left the rest for us.
