I hate those digger pines, for those that don't know, in the Sierra Nevada foothills we have a species of pine that is commonly referred to as a Digger Pine. These are sort of the weeds of the pine tree family. They don't grow vertically like normal pines, their trunk raises up in a outwardly curving fashion. The create a problem in that they are not very strong and tend to break off or fall over all together in any significant weather. These are definately not trees that you want anywhere near your house.
