Above is the before picture and below is after. Last Sunday one of Mark’s friends and a buddy that work for a tree company came over to take down three trees. Our usual tree guy has been busy so Mark got a hold of these guys. Because Mark and Greg have become Harbor Freight junkies they have outgrown the existing barns. In fairness the barn in this picture is the original and over 25 years old now.
It always amazes me when we have trees removed that once they’re gone I hardly notice the difference because our property is so heavily wooded. They did open the skyline up a little and we’ll appreciate less leaves to rake in the fall.
It really is amazing how fearless these guys were. It was quite windy and they didn’t seem to mind. As you know every job needs a foreman and Mark excels in that position. He is also available as the ground gopher.
Greg’s 4 wheeler really helped with the cleanup. Mark’s buddy enjoyed riding around on it too.
Head’s Up! The trees shook the house when they fell. Everyone manned the Stihls for the cutting.
We’re going to have a heck of a burn pile this year. Most of it is behind the pine so you can’t see how high it it. This morning when I looked out our window there were three deer nibbling on the buds from the downed branches. There are two in the above photo. See if you can find them.
Too bad we don’t have a fireplace. This is stage one of the barn project. To be continued…
