It was an old water oak with a huge hole in the side with limbs hanging over the house. They had to get a 60 ton crane to take down the tree since it was in the back yard and the trunk was about 6 foot in diameter.
Here are two lousy photos since I didn't think to take a photo before they started. You can see the hole in the side in one photo. Had a racoon living there, not sure where he/she will go now. that's my Harbor Freight portable garage in the background the lawn mower stays in.

This was the limbs hanging over the house. these things are easily two foot or more in diameter and were long and hanging right over the house.

The main truck was still solid from about 5 feet below the big hole, but it was rotting above that as evidenced by the big hollow limbs.
The backyard is a mess, they cleaned up the basic stuff, but it is still a mess
The bad part was the crane guy broke my concrete driveway. Not the end of the world, it is only about a 10' x 8" slab and they are supposed to come back and fix it. He had the supports off the driveway and the wheels were not touching when i saw it, but when he pulled off I noticed my concrete driveway was trashed.
Glad I got rid of the tree, now I have to wait on them to fix the driveway.
