When we bought this place, there were two great big cedar trees in the back yard.
Unfortunately, one of them was right next to, and seriously overhanging the garage, which would have prevented putting a peaked roof on the garage.
The other one would have posed a problem for Laura’s office.
So, they both had to come out. We hate taking trees out. (Laura claims to having a genetic aversion to removing trees. It always makes her cry. Unless they’re alder trees.) We’ll plant some new trees somewhere else in the future.
Here is a little of the removal action:
And here are the after shots:
Laura adds:
It started out being a cool, foggy morning.
And by the end of the day the guys had a splendid blue sky. Dave reported that once the fog dissolved the guy up in the tree would periodically stop what he was doing to check out the view. Bald eagles celebrated the day, too.
