House Crunched by Crane Today in Morningside

I was just lollygagging on my way home from CVS this afternoon. This just didn't look right. Thank goodness there were no injuries.

(Update on Crane Crunched House 2012-11-28 )

It was so quiet.

The neighbors had started gathering. It was right in front of us. It was so odd.

The next door neighbor said there was a BIG noise and she grabbed the kids.

The crane was reaching over the house removing a dangerous tree chunk by chuck.

The last chuck didn't cooperate, the chunk that broke the ridge's back.

It's supposed rain tonight.

Boutte Tree has a great reputation in the neighborhood. I know they'll make this right.

    of time both reading and leaving comments.
    But so what, it was still worth it!

    Unfortunately things do happen, life happens, we have those days now and again. Feel poorly for everyone, but yes, they will make it right and all will move forward, but again, do feel poorly about it.

    The tree guys do incredibly difficult, dangerous work in our own backyards. All the ones I've seen and the ones I've hired were amazingly careful and on guard. They worry about every possibility, including this one.
