Thousands of households were without power and many roads were blocked by fallen trees or power lines after a major storm hits Athens and Arnoldsville in the evening of Thursday July 20th.

Rayle EMC posted that 5,000 of its customers lost power during the storm. Our community on Lake Oglethorpe got hit pretty bad and many of my neighbors were without power for over 24 hours. I was lucky not to loose power but I did lose loose several large trees.

By some miracle the fallen trees missed my house, car and RV by just a feet.

On Friday morning, after the storm, Dennis and Tiffany from Georgia Tree Removal from Crawford GA came out and gave me a price for removing the fallen trees. They were at my house first thing Monday morning to get started and were finished around 1PM. They did a great job and I would recommend them for any tree removal needs.
