Woke up this morning at 5am to get in my morning run with the guys. Got in my car to drive to the park. Turned on the ignition, started driving out my driveway like I have a million times before. I looked up ahead as I began to coast and this is what I saw in the predawn half light:

Ummm. Slam on the brakes to be sure. Ummm...so anyhow a buddy picked me up so I could complete the run. Now trying to deal with a fallen tree across my driveway here on a Sunday. Up close:

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

Poor baby

Yeah, got it in. Clearing the tree and chipping / grinding the stump came in at $250. It is a big old Bradford Pear and I don't have a chainsaw or the time. Sheesh. At least they came out on a Sunday! I slowed down a bit. Maybe next time.

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

Perhaps some monkeys flew by your house last night and this is there way of asking for a dual?

How I feel these days... This helps too!

Slam on the brakes to be sure.

Doesn't your car have a bumper? Just give it a push! Wink
