The Trees Came Down

Monday, March 8, 2010

All of the houses around our home began to get their older damaged trees removed.  We have talked about having some of the pines in the front taken down because they continue to loose limbs and were overgrown when we moved into the house.  So, they began!!  What an amazing experience to see these men do their jobs.  


Sad to see the big trees go, but we will replace them with new growth for the future.  Look at some of the cool pictures below.




Here is the BEFORE picture.


There are two pictures of the crazy climber guy in the trees... he was pretty amazing.

Then there was also the guy in the bucket truck cutting.  See how much sawdust was flying around??!!

The final two are the stumps - pretty big trees!!  Also the 'after' picture of how things looks until we finalize some landscaping this spring.  Big job for all, but the trees with the falling limbs and the worries of an accident on the house in a wind storm are over.  Whew!!
