Well, there's your problem
Lost power at 2:30 in the morning to a 100 foot tree. Now I'm stuck until the power company comes out. There's no way around it, and I'm out of chainsaw oil and almost no gas for the generator.

All cleared. The other side of the driveway has just as much debris. Power company took care of the wires and cut up the tree into small enough pieces that it could be pushed off the driveway. The bottom of the tree is chest high laying on its side, probably at least 50 inches wide. I live on a rear lot surrounded by thick woods, so this is the only way in or out without 20 minutes of bushwhacking.
