Tree Removal (again)

Apparently trees have shorter lives than I realized. We had to have trees cut down again this summer. Same crew as in 2002 (when we had 20 or so cut down) with the same massive chipper and stump grinder. But since they were pine trees and a little smaller this time they didn't have the chain saws with the gargantuan chains this time.

Here's one of three pine trees coming down by the front corner of the house:And once they are all down:Here's an action shot:





Cool, huh? Did you catch the massive chipper action at the end? Can you imagine the fun you'd have with one of those?

The list is endless.
