Thing is, I've been all trough the Blue Ridge and Appellation mountains when I lived in Atlanta from '85-2000. Never saw or heard a tree fall in thousands of miles. It really was a fluke. Poor kid. It's good the passenger is okay and wishing her a speedy recovery.
Aren't you near Buford? Our home was in Snellville. We did a lot of fishing near Buford on the south end of Lake Lenier.
Live each day as if it were the last...one never knows when that time will come.

Yes, Ken... we live in Buford, only a half-mile from the Buford Dam, a 5-minute walk to down to Lake Lanier. We ride across the dam and through the lake park every time we leave the house. We ride among all of the trees in the North Georgia mountains a lot, as so many other riders here do. I guess I'll be looking up a bit more often, especially when we stop. We have taken breaks many times standing in the shade of trees in the mountains.
I'm still in shock about this.
