Tree gave my car a hug

Bad day at work...

Luckily the damage wasn't worse than couple small dents/scratches. Crazy thing is a literally parked there, then 10 minutes later it fell.

edit: wont let me upload. Sigh. I guess the photos are too high quality. One sec.
edit2: Wow uploading photos to this forum is hard. I wish it would auto resize.
edit: added another pic. It shows the worst of the damage, some smaller dents. But there are a bunch of little scratches everywhere, just very light.

You mean you hit a tree? Or a tree fell on your car? Either way, I'm glad to hear the damage wasn't major and nobody was hurt.

Any pictures of the damage?

LOL pretty sure the tree just fell on his car. If he hit that huge tree hard enough for it to fall on the car, I'm fairly certain he wouldn't be here to post about it.
