Building a small deck, had a storm come through and knocked over a good size maple tree. It happened in the middle of the night and nobody was around.

I sent my dealer these pics, he was hoping for a direct hit so that I could upgrade

Wow, that was close! Yeesh. Where I park my Kubota, there are a bunch of trees towering overhead. None have fallen before, but you wonder

So where are you located? -- that rocky soil reminds me of Connecticut.

Actually it probably landed squarely on your tractor and bounced off. After all, it is a Cub Cadet.

THAT was a gentleman's tree ...

I hope it was disposed of with respect!

Muskoka Ontario - 2 hours north of Toronto, right in the middle of cottage country and Canadian Shield. This was a maple tree.

Tree was cut up nicely and will provide a little warmth this winter, stump was dug out (it flipped back upright when cut) with said Cub Cadet and moved to its final resting place. Very little damage done to lawn.

Look at the bright side. You wont have to carry the wood since you have a FEL. :)
