The tree's roots had been damaged by salt water when the neighborhood flooded during hurricane Sandy and they were worried about it eventually falling over and hurting someone.
By the time we got back from the store, my timber-farmer neighbor had come by with his tractor and dragged the fallen tree off of my road. Thanks, Tom!
My truck was loaded with stuff I was bringing to the cabin. I made it almost to the top of my private mountain road only to find it blocked by a fallen tree!
