[Tea Party Hobbit]

I've been told the weight of three trees that had to be lifted off people's houses. The figure I remember was seven tons; I believe that was the heaviest of the three.

A big tree will pretty much go where it wants to go -- and whenever it wants to. It's no crime to cut them down.

I know - but it just seemed (in my small mind), that securing trees near one’s home, would keep them from falling onto the house, causing major damage and possible injury. I know now, I was very wrong.
