The Loud Thud

I was taking my beauty rest one afternoon when I was awaken by a loud thud. I had no clue what it was. It was a fine sunny Wednesday afternoon but breezy. The wind knots were said to be in the 60s so I was not surprised that I could hear the wind blowing from the inside.

I looked outside through the window from where I was comfortably lying and just saw the maple tree branches and newly sprung green leaves dancing and swaying to the rhythm of the whooshing wind.

I thought it was only one of the ladders that Hubby left at the back of the house where he was doing the sidings...

or it could be one of his work tools that he left in the backyard...

or it could also be one of Brandon's toys left at the lawn.

I had so many things in my mind because my backyard is a mess with all the toys and gadgets of my two boys lying and scattered all over the place. But I was too tired to think, much less to check it out so I went back to napping.

As I was leaving my driveway and about the merge the traffic, I saw this familiar tree lying on the our front yard.

So that was the loud thud was all about.
