More About the Tree
I didn't get any pictures of the tree before it came down, but when I was over at the house this morning, I took this picture:
As we can all now see, the tree guy was totally right. Basically, this tree was a big rotten hole holding up a bunch of very large and heavy branches:
Also, this is the big tree limb that started it all (it doesn't look that big in this picture but the limb actually extends clear to the other side of the garage, plus they've already cut a bunch of branches off):

Geezus, that's scary! I hate trees that are like people, projecting one thing when they're really another. I'll have to get the tree guy to come over to our place--although, after your lesson, I'm sure all the ratty-looking trees we have are fine and the nice sturdy-looking ones are the deathstars.

Trust no tree with leaves! That is the lesson we have learned from all this.
