Tree Down

So about two weeks ago we had the apple tree in the front yard cut down. Not only was it growing up into the power lines- but it was driving Timmy nuts when he mowed the lawn- so it was truly a two-fer (as my mother would say). I cannot tell you just how fast they brought that thing down. I swear it was in less than 15 minutes from start to finish. Kaitlynn and I watched out the front windows while the group of probably 10 guys ripped this thing down. I was a little nervous because Tim and I had already gotten all the Halloween decoration put out in that yard and I didn’t want them to get in the guys way- but they didn’t. Actually the guys got a kick out of all the grave stones and staked heads- they walked all the way around to see them. One guy actually sat down and had a quick sandwich next to a zombie mask- it was awesome! Timmy should be happy now not to slip on the tiny little apples next summer. Although I will definitely miss the pretty blossoms in the spring- oh well, we can’t win them all.
