Close encounter with a Bradford pear tree limb.
Snow has weighed the Bradford pear's limbs down and they're laying on top of my orchid window. http://pic.twitter.com/GNHVsaVvSK ·

In this panorama, you can see tree limbs sinking to the ground.
Guess I don't have to worry about this tree falling on my house, though I am concerned it's on my Internets line http://pic.twitter.com/0SALuKKU9W ·
