Pictures of Ike

I have been meaning to put some pictures I took of my yard post Ike and this seems like as good a time as any.

This is the one that fell right on my front path.
As you can see it pretty much demolished the creape myrtle there and the one on the other side of the path you can't see. It also smashed the two arbors holding up the star jasmine.

This is the same tree at a different angle. the one that hit the house is inthe background

This is the one that hit the house over my bedroom and put a hole in the roof. Cost to remove $2,500, plus tax.

This one was a twofer on another part of the yard. I don't know if they both fell at the same time or if the one on the left fell into the one on the right and took it down.
All eight trees we think fell at the same time and in the same direction.
We are getting these two cut little by little but they were not as urgent as the one that hit the house and the prices will come down.
