BOOM!!!!!

About 5 PM last night..........I was sleeping until an extremely loud thunderclap woke me up.

Since we have lots of trees on our block, every once and awhile lightning will hit one of them.

I don't think I've ever seen a tree so completely destroyed like this before.

The tree has several splits running up the length of the trunk. Not sure how they'll remove the tree, there ain't no way I'd want to climb up it......

It's split the whole way up.

It's no small wonder I freak out when I'm out riding in the woods when a thunderstorm comes up.

till later.
