They didn’t quite finish today — just some clean-up and stump-grinding left — but the trees are down.
And look — we’ve got sun!
I’m not sure that this side of the house has ever seen the sun! We’re pretty excited about that…
Best of all, for the first time ever, a contractor has done work at our house and NOT wrecked one of our cars or another part of the house that they weren’t hired to work on.
A job well done — I’ll have no problem making that $2750 check out to these guys.

The video doesn’t really portray the full effect of having this cluster of trees taken out so here’s a before and after rollover of the first frame and the last frame:

That took some work to throw together, but I quite enjoyed it!
I did tree work in college for a few summers, never with a bucket truck though.
Looks great, now you just need grass!

Most of the neighbors figured that we were clearing the way for a pool…
I told ‘em, “Nope, just grass…”
It’s nice to be able to see the far end of the property out the window… I can’t wait until it’s nice and green too… I’m not sure if it’s too late in the season to even bother seeding…

The video is not working. I really wanted to see this because I have a tree that needs to come down after 13 years (bummer).
