I believe I have a black walnut tree in my back yard. I also believe there are several in the neighborhood and surrounding area. Then again, I’m no tree expert but these boulders sound like Aaron Judge hitting a baseball through the forest when they fall.
I walk outside or I’m lying in the hammock, and I hear these things dropping like a big rock. Had one bounce in the street in front of me the other day.
When mowing the back with the push mower these potential ankle breakers are all around lurking like land mines.
They are larger than golf balls, but smaller than baseballs. So, heads up if you’re walking around outside. I don’t mind getting hit with the occasional oak nut dropping from the 2 trees out front. But these monsters are concussion material.
Random Thoughts of the Day
- It was a nice evening to grill out yesterday.
- There was no way I was going to make it through the SNF game.
- I didn’t think it was possible for another modern-day Hitler to happen. I was wrong.
- Holding some of my grandchildren today will give me hope and determination.
