About 15 - 20 fully mature trees, each one pulling down the next in a widening front pushing downhill.  It's a frightening scenario that actually happened. 

Perhaps 100 tons of wood snapping and crashing down. I beg the roar must have been heard 1/2 mile away, and it may have gone on for a good 20 - 30 seconds.   It went downhill for over 300 feet, increasing in power as each tree fell on the next.  The latter trees fell so hard they were smashed flat to the forest floor.  If it wasn't for the fact that the tree avalanche left the woods, it would have gone on further.  The last tree to fall wasn't even uprooted, it snapped at the base.  Raw power, raw energy. The last tree and another oak then smashed across the southern end of the vernal pond, across the back yard of a house, and then directly into the same house on Brook Street.

The ruins are more than spectacular, more than tragic.  Where are our trusty photographers when we need them.

Justwatching.....You missed your calling......You should be an Adventure Novel Writer....But for all I know maybe you are..... :o

Hackensack Discussion / Re: Blue law exceptions (Can sell on Sunday)
« on: March 18, 2010, 09:58:03 PM »
The whole Blue Law issue should be left to the people to vote on and decide, as it always has been....not for the Legislature to decide...

This is getting out of hand now, where the few are trying to cram B.S. 10 trillion dollar healthcare system down our throats this coming Sunday....even though the majority dosn't want it......

Now Christie want's the few to decide for the many....

I understand that he's just trying to raise more money in the form of taxe's, to try and bail out a bankrupt State...but this isn't the way to do it....
