Thanks all for the well wishes. I never thought of keeping some for arrows yesterday. I cut it up into manageable pieces so the cars could get out of the driveway so my wife and boy could go to the inlaws until things get on an even keel. We do have a couple pieces put aside to be turned into a couple of other things.

They did manage to get my street opened up so we can drive the right way (it's a oneway street). Driving around town today there are lots of folks much worse off.

We'll be fine, just takes a little time to clean up and duct tape the town back together is all.

Yeah, Vermonster, when I started reading the thread, I thought, bet the butt of that log has some straight grained, knot-free areas. I could see all the arrow shafts. Then I read about the chains saw!!!     :banghead:

Thank goodness it missed your roof!
I was wondering how many arrows you could get out of a blue spruce...they woulda had good mojo!

Killdeer~ Happy Birthday Jakester!!  :wavey:

sorry to hear about all the damage but thank God nobody was injured and all the trees missed your house, which has suddenly made me think about my shooting abilities...LOL.  Really cool gift to your boy.  I'm sure that will really mean a lot to him in the future...  God Bless and good luck with the clean-up.   Frank

David,  Glad that didn't come down on your house   :scared:   We're still getting rain and high tides here on the coast from this Nor'easter.  But it looks like the sun is supposed to come out tomorrow (sounds like a song)  Glad everyone is safe & sound.  

Oops gotta run I think I see a school of trout swimming across my lawn  :)   Doc

That is some Wicked Wind to just Peel your rather Large Blue Spruce!! Looks like you could get someone with a Backhow and Stand it Right Back Up!   :scared:  
       And if you Listen, you can hear ALL the Insurance People saying: "OH S**T!!"  
"They Knew the Job was Dangerous when They Took It!"   :biglaugh:

The sun is out this morning for the first time in a while. The things we take for granted and the things we learn we can live without. Not saying everyone should go through a disaster, but you do learn some things. It looks like we may have power back by tonight. Everyone please keep your fingers crossed for us.

Thanks for all the support folks.
