I had a knock on my door last night. It was my next door neighbor. He says matter-of-factly "There's a tree in the park that looks like it's going to fall on your garage".
Sure enough, there's a 40 foot pine that's leaning on a good angle. Can you see it in this photo? (hint-look just above where the two fences meet)



Sure enough- the roots are pulling out the ground!:


You can't tell by the photo, but there is a soccer ball sized hole there.





My other neighbor happens to be deputy mayor so I figured instead of all the run-around I'd get calling the town, I'd just call him. Sure enough, I followed up with him tonight and it's going to be looked after. I hope they do it soon as I fear the frozen ground is all that's holding it. We are expecting temps in the mid teens tomorrow.
