The damage is more than just the top.
The tree is laying across the doors it may not be salvageable. It was a project 
vehicle. One of many. Ron

I went to geezer hour at the grocery on Monday morning 6A-7A.? It was
mobbed with geezers driving their carts like they drive their cars in
the parking lot.? Some of those people were rather vicious and of course
they tend to wander and leave their carts crosswise of the aisles and
are oblivious to anyone else around.? Then after going through all the
checkout they stand there and oops realize, oh I actually gotta pay for
this, then root around for a wallet and debit card or whatever and that
takes another 5min.? I got a few things and decided not to deal with
that madness again.

Popped in yesterday afternoon, there was hardly anyone there. Only good
steaks, not much other beef.? Some chicken etc.? Plenty of eggyweggs.?
Other staples in short supply but I am fairly well-stocked in that regard.

Get off my damn lawn!!!
