above my waterfall on my maple tree do you see the very dark like burn spot

The strip is about four feet long. I can't believe the damage it had done. During the rainy windy snowy night stuff that we had in the begining of march the lighting hit it. AT 1AM...

It sounded like a tree fell on the house.

I have just painted it with tree wound stuff so hopefully she'll heal. we trimmed it so she wouldn't have to put out that much energy to produce leaves. I hope the lightening won't do that again

I will definately have to place a net to stop the leaves from falling in. but that is what we have a pool net cleaner for. We still have alot of landscaping and have to add several more rocks to the pond area. I will be doing this in between my chemo when I am awake. this whole weekend is going to be shot as I am going for treatment tomorrow

I will have my lawn back soon. My son richard did a beautiful job for not knowing what or how. I will post some pics this afternoon
