Fallen tree

Last Friday at 5:15 pm we had a strong front come through and it had strong winds.  I was checking pocket gopher traps near the river and was among smaller (hawthorn) trees.  Those trees cut down the wind in that area.  I could hear the wind and could see what I initially thought was rain coming.  But the "rain" turned out to be dirt blowing in the wind.   The wind was gusting up to 52 mph.

The next day I found a tree in the north pasture had been blown over.  Cutting up the tree and its branches is yet another thing to add to my "to-do" list.
