We received about 16" of snow at my home this week and it was such a wet heavy snow it snapped one of my oak trees and it landed on the roof of the house.  This caused a great deal of stress to me until it could be removed!  I'm happy to say there was no damage to our home.  While the trunk of the tree didn't hit the house it was the upper branches that landed on the roof and the snow had cushioned the fall!  Anyway, that being taken care of, there have been many hours of shoveling snow and dealing with things in our everyday life, hence the reason this newsletter is a bit late!  Here's a picture of the tree on the roof after the snow stopped.
