| Concern
about tall old trees too close to the house and
possibly falling in a storm led us to have them taken down. The event was quite a show. |
|
 When I got home from my hike the first tree was well under way. |
 In no time it was down to the trunk |
 The second tree proceeded quickly. It was exciting to watch the agility and rope handling skill of the crew. |

 The ground crew also knew what they were doing. Note no logs in the neighbor's yard. All cut up and ready for the bobcat to pick up. |
 The bobcat took load after load through the woods to the street where the 6 ft logs were shredded and thrown into a waiting truck. |
 |
 |
 The remaining trunk was leveled and will be dug out next spring. |
 Meanwhile the crew moved on to the 3rd tree and the street crew continued to move logs to the shredder and haul them away. A very efficient operation. |
