I love big trees, but they are also scary when they tower over your house. We have an enormous oak tree in our back yard that towers over the neighbor's house. She's a nice little old lady, and I worry a little about her every time we have a fierce storm. We've had the dead limbs cut out of it and it was assesed by the tree company as healthy, but still...
It's also always sad after a storm like this, and the neighborhood isn't as cool and shady any more, with the sun beating in. I like mature trees in old neighborhoods.
