Had a nice 12" hemlock delivered next to mill last night. We had some nice 50 mph gusts last night. Our hemlocks are carpet roots no tap so they blow over pretty easy. Luckily I was very fortunate it didn't hit the cantlever roof.

Looks like you were extremely fortunate Jeff.  At least you will not have to roll it very far to saw it.   ;D

Hate it when customers leave the limbs on.

Lucky indeed, you could have easily been in for a few days work had that tree been 3-4 feet closer to the mill!

Yikes Jeff
That was too close, might be a good idea to get a good look at the other hemlocks near the mill and see if you need to create a new project where they will be put to good use.
Im with ET .......... get a couple lottery tickets  ;D
