RUN!!!!

So today was our first real work day on the site (where we had to be there at 8am and couldn't leave till 4ish). It was interesting....we tried to do the site layout, but found out our site plan was messed up, we also realized we need another tree taken down, so we had to do it ourselves.
So here's the tree as its coming down and the other one is us pulling the tree. The deal was that as soon as it started falling we would all run the other way. But the guy from Habitat that was helping us today stood behind another tree....THAT WAS DIRECTLY IN THE LINE OF FIRE! So the tree he stood behind took the majority of the blow but he still got hit with plenty of branches. It was like slow motion...I turn around and start running and turn back around just fast enough to see the tree fall. It was crazy!
